I was struck by this fact earlier today when the news came out that Codecademy, where I was a founding engineer, is now a [fast-growing business](https://twitter.com/amasad/status/1364296435059974149). The news came on the heels of our [Series A announcement](https://venturebeat.com/2021/02/18/replit-raises-20-million-for-collaborative-browser-based-coding/) at [Replit](https://repl.it), where we shared some great numbers too. At Facebook, I was a founding engineer on React Native, which also had a [fantastic last year](https://shopify.engineering/react-native-future-mobile-shopify). And all the [open-source projects](https://amasad.me/2016) I've been part of -- Babel and Jest most famously -- became standard tools that measurably increased productivity and changed industries. 8 | 9 | Across all my work -- the millions of developers we helped mint, the CS teachers we empowered, and the entrepreneurs we enabled -- I've probably had a significant impact on the world economy, perhaps even meaningfully increased productivity. 10 | 11 | Reflecting on this, first, I'm grateful to be able to be useful on such a large scale. After all, just ten years ago, I was a kid in Amman who'd just graduated from university and was interviewing at random companies (including a cigarette factory for VB6 work that comes with a free carton of cigarettes a week). 12 | 13 | Second, and more importantly, I think it's time to be more ambitious. With every project, I stopped short of what was possible. I let haters & doubters change my plans and assumed a sense of fake humility because that's what people expected. 14 | 15 | The culmination of my work is Replit, where we're working to give people computer superpowers. We want to nudge the world away from rampant digital consumption to one where there are more creators and entrepreneurs. Anyone anywhere can participate in the digital economy and build and leverage software to better themselves and their communities. 16 | 17 | Now that I've seen what's possible in a decade while starting from nothing, in this decade, I'd like to create trillions of dollars in value for the world in the form of better access to technology and tools. 18 | 19 | My only regret is my mum is not here to see all this. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/fight.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "Learning to Fight", 3 | "date": "03/15/2021" 4 | } 5 | --- 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Running a growing business is thrilling. Serving customers is incredible, and growing revenue feels great. But there is only so much excitement in running your average — say b2b — startup. 10 | 11 | But suppose your company is doing something so radical it changes culture. In that case, you have to be ready to be surprised, delighted, horrified, and viscously attacked. 12 | 13 | In prior eras, a b2b startup founder might've been a skilled trader. Whereas a successful culture-changing founder would've started a revolution or a religion. 14 | 15 | When you're challenging norms, you have to be ready to fight the gatekeepers, the useful idiots, and the final boss — the priesthood — those who maintain the status quo. 16 | 17 | It's essential to cultivate your community. Provide protected spaces to assemble because existing spaces are hostile to change. Build tools for collective action and encourage solidarity. Build allies wherever you can find them — the outsiders, the weirdos, and the radical thinkers are your best friends. 18 | 19 | As a leader, build up stress tolerance. Find habits that clear the mind. Learn how to function with little sleep but take sleep seriously. 20 | 21 | In quiet times don't let your guard down. Use those times to train for the next battle. But also celebrate good times and reflect on your victories and losses. 22 | 23 | Understand the political milieu. Try not to swim upstream unless it's essential for your mission. Better to ride or entirely circumvent it. 24 | 25 | Tell your story. Don't rely on the media machine to tell it for you because, ultimately, they're part of the gatekeeping class. Many are owned by the priesthood. 26 | 27 | When building your crew, prefer zealots. It's too risky to have skeptics in your midst. But prize truth, and allow criticism. Build an organization that is both rooted in and unsatisfied with reality. 28 | 29 | Enjoy yourself. And remember that quitting is never an option. When it's darkest and most intense, you're closest to victory. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/grateful.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "Be Grateful", 3 | "date": "06/02/2018" 4 | } 5 | --- 6 | 7 | Where I'm from "Thank God" is something you say every day. While nowadays most 8 | people say it in an automatic, mindless way, I think it came to be tradition 9 | because of a profound sense of appreciation for life by our ancestors. People 10 | found themselves in a world where things are not too bad and often pretty 11 | good. They looked around them, and while they didn't know why or how they got 12 | here, they felt thankful for the life they're given. So they felt and expressed 13 | gratitude, multiple times day, each day. 14 | 15 | _"We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones"_ said Richard Dawkins, 16 | talking about how lucky we are to be the ones that got to live for _"the 17 | potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never 18 | see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Arabia"_. Meditate on that, 19 | and when you feel those words, no matter what your misfortune is, you'll know 20 | that you're damn lucky to be alive. 21 | 22 | In the story, _Candide: Optimism_, a philosopher named Pangloss believed that we 23 | live in the best of all possible worlds. And despite the deep misfortune visited 24 | upon him–enslavement, torture, earthquakes, and more–Pangloss maintained his 25 | belief that he lives in the best of all possible worlds. While the story is 26 | ridiculing this type of thinking, I think there's something to be learned from 27 | Pangloss. We may not be living in the best of all possible worlds, but I can 28 | certainly imagine far worse worlds than I can imagine better ones. Maybe that's 29 | because we humans are wired to fear the worst so we can survive the world. But 30 | the flipside is that you can be deeply grateful for living in a world where your 31 | deepest fears are not reality. 32 | 33 | So I'm thankful. Starting with my peaceful upbringing, I'm beholden to my 34 | parents and my grandparents who left war-ravaged countries to move to an island 35 | of peace among total and utter nihilistic destruction. I grew up in an 36 | intellectually and physically stimulating environment. And for that, I'm 37 | grateful to my friends, teachers, and peers. I'm thankful for my hometown, the 38 | place where I found love–a woman that believed in me and pushed me to my limits 39 | and beyond. 40 | 41 | However, I chose to leave to follow in the footsteps of my heroes. To the place 42 | where pioneers, inventors, and visionaries imagined and built a world where 43 | humans can transcend their limitations. Extended by technology, we're evolving 44 | into something new and beautiful. I'm grateful to the country that took me in, 45 | the industry that let me follow my dreams, and the people that took a bet on me. 46 | 47 | Yes, I know I'm lucky, and that's precisely why I'm thankful. But I also believe 48 | in progress. I think that we–all of us, all of humanity–are going somewhere, 49 | somewhere beautiful. So be thankful; be thankful for every moment you're 50 | alive. And if you're also one of the lucky ones, you have a responsibility to 51 | make the world a little better for everyone else. 52 | 53 | Thank you for reading this. 54 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/hello-world.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "Hello World", 3 | "date": "04/09/2015" 4 | } 5 | --- 6 | 7 | You can now embed runnable code snippets from [repl.it](https://repl.it) on your blog or website. 8 | Just go to [repl.it](https://repl.it) and pick one of the languages listed below, save your code and click share to get the html code to paste on your site. 9 | 10 | #### C++ 11 | 12 |

Some say social media is "fake." But to the receiver of the like, they feel appreciated and heard, and to them, that's real. It's perhaps more real than going out into the world and saying interesting things and receiving real-world "likes" and praise. The activity is reduced to its essence and delivers intense satisfaction. Likes are hyperreal. 8 | 9 | For something to be fake, it can't produce the intended result. It should be counterfeit. But hyperreal is the opposite. To make a hyperreal object from a real one, take only the details that excite the mind — like getting praise — intensify them, and drop everything else. When you reduce food to its most intense elements — sweet & salt — you get hyperreal (junk) food. That is the formula for hyperreality. 10 | 11 | Hyperreality is exciting, but too much of it is destructive to humans. It takes us out of our natural flow and makes us into addicts. Now you might object with something like "everything in moderation," which is trite and true. But be prepared to fight the modern technological system optimized to produce hyperreality. 12 | 13 | You might blame "capitalism" for working against our better angels. It is, after all, very efficient at producing hyperreality. But you'd be wrong because humans have been making hyperreality since cave drawings. 14 | 15 | Communism produces hyperreality too. It is hyperreality. It takes a naturally occurring thing — family and community — and intensifies its most attractive elements. It's an intoxicating hyperreal vision. 16 | 17 | Are we doomed to eternal hyperreality addiction? It is a potential answer to Fermi's Paradox. Intelligent life evolves until all it does is produce and consume hyperreality at the expense of exploring the stars. 18 | 19 | I don't think we're doomed though. And I don't think regulation is the answer either. Religions have dealt with the destructive nature of hyperreality. Why do you think you can't draw pictures of people or animals in Islam? A restriction that generated an art culture rooted in abstract (unreal) shapes. 20 | 21 | The secular West is especially vulnerable to hyperrealism because societal norms that could protect us are considered oppressive. I love the West's renegade aspect. It resulted in innovative art, science, and technology. But it left us unprotected against hyperreality. 22 | 23 | Whatever comes next — may be a techno-futurist religion — needs to address this issue. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/leapfrog.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "Leapfrogging the IDE", 3 | "date": "11/11/2018" 4 | } 5 | --- 6 | 7 | Progress in technology happens incrementally; it's hard to imagine inventing the cellphone without inventing landline telephones first. However, adoption need not respect the incremental nature of innovation. Advanced technology is often easier to adopt because it requires less infrastructure. 8 | 9 | The classic example of this is the astonishing adoption of mobile in Africa especially relative to landline: 10 | 11 | ![mobile vs fixed in africa](/public/images/africa.jpg) 12 | 13 | Sometime last year we discovered that some users use [Repl.it](https://repl.it) -- an online REPL and development platform -- as their primary programming tool. This seems surprising at first: other than for learning, why would anyone use a more limited tool over a more mature and flexible one? 14 | 15 | It turns out this was the wrong question to ask. A better one would be: "if someone had already learned to code on an online REPL and it serves their needs then why would they want to invest in a local setup?". Because they'd started with Repl.it, they need a compelling reason to install an IDE locally and possibly have to invest in buying a more expensive device (say from a Chromebook to a Mac). 16 | 17 | In fact, this is the exact question our users are [asking](https://repl.it/talk/ask/Can-Replit-substitute-a-code-editor-like-PyCharm/6245): why do I have to switch? 18 | 19 |
20 | ![replit as primary coding](/public/images/primary.png) 21 |
22 | 23 | This way of formulating questions better explains the leapfrogging phenomenon in general: "why do I have to invest in a PC if my tablet/mobile handles all my computing needs?," "why do I need a credit-card if I can just use my mobile payment wallet?" etc. 24 | 25 | In our experience, even the people that make the switch are often dissatisfied with the result -- wishing VSCode worked just like Repl.it: 26 | 27 |

30 | 31 | With programmers growing up today being used to instant, interactive, globally accessible programming tools like Repl.it, Jupyter Notebooks, serverless (pay-as-you-go) compute, and others, it doesn't seem so outlandish to imagine a post-IDE world. 32 | 33 | _This blog is built and hosted with Repl.it: [amasad.me/__repl](/__repl)_ 34 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/learnable.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "Implementing Bret Victor's Learnable Programming", 3 | "date": "01/10/2014", 4 | "hidden": "true" 5 | } 6 | --- 7 | 8 | A few days ago I [released debug.js](http://amasad.me/2014/01/06/building-an-in-browser-javascript-vm-and-debugger-using-generators/) and I breifly touched on the educational applications of the library. This morning, I had a couple of hours before going to work so I decided to implement the “Make flow visible” example from Bret Victor’s [‘Learnable Programming’ paper](http://worrydream.com/LearnableProgramming/) (Feel free to change the code): 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | [_premalink_](https://amasad.github.io/learnable-programming-demo/) 13 | 14 | Here is how it’s done: 15 | 16 | 1. Given a program, step through it once using [debug.js](https://github.com/amasad/debugjs) to get the execution flow info 17 | 2. Plot the execution flow using [d3](http://d3js.org/) 18 | 3. Whenever the user scrubs through the plot, rerun the steps up to the step index that the user has the pointer over. 19 | 4. Repeat from 1 when the editor code change 20 | 21 | The entire thing is ~250 LOCs and is [up on Github](https://github.com/amasad/learnable-programming-demo). 22 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/meta.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "Beware the Metagame", 3 | "date": "11/11/2018" 4 | } 5 | --- 6 | 7 | Have you ever wondered why the less "pure" a scientific field is, the less progress we've made? 8 | 9 | ![](https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/purity.png) 10 | 11 | The more abstract a subject is, the easier it is to reason about and therefore make progress on. That's why we've made a lot more progress in math and physics than any other subject. The problem became more salient recently as some of the perceived scientific progress made in the less pure sciences -- psychology, medicine, economics -- is being nullified in a widespread ["replication crisis"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_crisis) where many scientific studies are failing to reproduce. 12 | 13 | One way to get more abstract is to take the meta view of a subject. Programming Language Theory (PLT), for example, is the study of programming languages and their features and characteristics. While a lot of progress has been made in PLT, rarely does this translates into features in languages used in the real world. There's often decades-long gap for some form of a PLT idea to make to the industry because programming is messy and complicated and full of human problems that PLT researchers don't bother studying. 14 | 15 | I have a lot more respect for people who stick to the base game, avoiding getting sucked into the much more comfortable metagame. While we need researchers and scientists to go meta, they should remain tethered to the base-game and work closely with practitioners. 16 | 17 | I've first noticed this problem in the startup world where you see famous people that sell books, talk at conferences, and tweet advice to founders, but when you take a closer look, they've never done much founding themselves. They're like the "entrepreneurship" professor that never built a business. They're experts in the metagame -- they're polished speakers, engaging writers, and thought-leadering tweeters. The problem, though, is that they're not judged by customers, the market, or nature, instead they're judged by their peers. I call them metapreneurs. 18 | 19 | This is an instance of what Nassim Taleb calls "The Expert Problem" -- when other experts and meta-experts judge experts. Eventually the lack of contact with reality will corrupt the field. In the sciences, that lead to the replication crisis and the [absurdities](https://areomagazine.com/2018/10/02/academic-grievance-studies-and-the-corruption-of-scholarship/) of the humanities. 20 | 21 | If you find yourself going to a lot of conferences, opining too much on the latest fad in your field, and talking more about doing the thing than doing the job itself, then you, my friend, are getting sucked into the metagame. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/minimalism.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "Fake Minimalism", 3 | "date": "01/12/2017" 4 | } 5 | --- 6 | 7 | It's now fashionable to call yourself a "minimalist", but is that merely about not having things? I remember going to school everyday carrying nothing at all, no bag, no books, no pen, nothing -- I was a slacker. If I needed a 8 | pen, say for a pop quiz, I had to borrow one quickly. In other words, I depended 9 | on my classmates to provide the pen. Is this really minimalism? Yes, I didn't need the material possession of a pen, but I had to depend on others to provide the pen. 10 | 11 | In Silicon Valley, where your company feeds you, washes your clothes, and supply your 12 | social life, are you a minimalist for not having a kitchen, a washer, or friends 13 | outside of work? Defined this way, a baby is the ultimate minimalist, after all 14 | it has zero possessions and relies on the mother for everything. 15 | 16 | I think self-sufficiency needs to be taken into account when evaluating 17 | minimalism -- even if it's at the cost of having more material possessions. For 18 | instance, buying a hair clipper and spending a bit of time learning how to 19 | cut my own hair is definitely more minimal than relying on a barber that I have 20 | to schedule with, pay to, and go to (that can get sick, go on vacation, or 21 | move away). 22 | 23 | A similar thing happens in software all the time -- is it more minimal: 24 | 25 | - to use a service than it is implement your own? 26 | - to take on a software package dependency than it is to write your own library? 27 | - to have users always augment your app with some other app for a missing 28 | feature than it is to add it? 29 | 30 | A Fake Minimalist will go with the former for every case. 31 | 32 | In his ["Spec-ulation" talk](https://youtu.be/oyLBGkS5ICk?t=23m), Rich 33 | Hickey brought this point home by defining software growth as (my emphasis): 34 | 35 | - Accretion: to provide more functionality. 36 | - __Relaxation: to require less (dependencies, inputs, etc).__ 37 | - Fixation: to fix bugs. 38 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/moad.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "50th Anniversary of The Mother of All Demos", 3 | "date": "12/9/2018" 4 | } 5 | --- 6 | 7 | I was asked to give a toast in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of [The Mother of All Demos](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mother_of_All_Demos) so I spent some time reflecting on Engelbart's work. 8 | 9 | Most of the commentary on his work is focused on the technical achievements and the impressive feats of engineering that's genuinely 50 years ahead of its time. Just this week we, at Repl.it, we introduced Multiplayer -- the ability to code together with anyone in the world -- and although we have the benefits of modern tooling and infrastructure it was still hard work 10 | 11 | A more interesting question to ask would be: "What's Douglas Englebart's generation function?" In other words, what ideas, themes, and philosophies that have inspired his groundbreaking work? 12 | 13 | I didn't have much time to work with, so I had to go mostly of off memory -- this question requires a more in-depth examination. However, I've identified three themes that are worth studying. 14 | 15 | ## Computers as mind extenders 16 | 17 | Engelbart and his contemporaries saw computers as first and foremost tools for mind extension. Something we can use to augment our intellect to take on more and do more. 18 | 19 | >"By augmenting human intellect we mean increasing the capability of man to approach complex problem situation to gain comprehension to suit his particular needs and to derive solutions to problems. Increased capability in this respect is taken to mean mixture of the following: more rapid comprehension, better comprehension, the possibility of gaining useful degree of comprehension in situation that previously was too complex, speedier solutions, better solutions and the possibility of finding solutions to problems that before seemed insoluble." -- [Augmenting Human Intellect](https://www.dougengelbart.org/pubs/papers/scanned/Doug_Engelbart-AugmentingHumanIntellect.pdf) 20 | 21 | This sits in stark contrast to today's computers as the driver for the attention economy. Where computers as seen as entertainment devices at best. A more cynical reading of the way governments and ad-based businesses use computers would lead you to believe they're devices of control. 22 | 23 | ## Evolutionary design 24 | 25 | To understand Engelbart it's important to not view him as a lone inventor genius a la Tesla that predicted what computers could do 50 years ahead of his time. In his own words you can see that they took a much more exciting approach to discovery: 26 | 27 | >"We're pursuing this monstrous goal by building and trying *empirically* -- we approach evolutionary-wise because we feel it's a whole system problem [...] it's much more than these computer tools" 28 | 29 | 30 | 31 | ## Bootstrapping 32 | 33 | "Bootstrapping" is another recurring theme in Engelbart's work. I think of it as "increasing returns": 34 | 35 | - You build tools, and then the tools you built helps you create better tools. 36 | - Tools make you smarter, and you make better tools that make you smarter... ad nauseam. 37 | - Tools increase productivity which makes us wealthier which in turn allows us to invest in more and better tools. 38 | 39 | ## Conclusion 40 | 41 | It's worth noting that what seemed to drive Engelbart was his concern for the unique challenges an exponentially changing world brings. He believed that ["boosting Collective IQ"](https://www.dougengelbart.org/pubs/papers/scanned-original/2004-augment-133319-augmenting-society's-collective-iqs.pdf) is imperative for the flourishing of humanity. 42 | 43 | In Silicon Valley, at least in my circles, there's a general feeling that we need to return to the thinking of computers as "bicycles for the mind." And I hope we do. 44 | 45 | _Thanks to Figma and Dylan Field for inviting me to [reflect](https://www.meetup.com/Figma-SF/events/cwsnhqyxqbmb/) on this awesome day._ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/networks.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "Civilizational Primitives", 3 | "date": "11/16/2022" 4 | } 5 | --- 6 | 7 | At the dawn of civilization, with the introduction of the agricultural revolution, humans needed to coordinate in larger numbers so _the hierarchy_ emerged as the primary organizing tool. People organized into pyramid-like structures with ranks and different entitlements and responsibilities. This structure proved useful and spread to apply to every aspect of civilization: we had kings and peasants, owners and serfs, clergy and laymen. 8 | 9 | With the industrial revolution, we needed ways to coordinate in larger numbers and a more decentralized manner. The _assembly line_ emerged as the basic civilizational primitive of this era. Every node — be it a person, a company, or a nation — was hyper-specialized and produced one thing with a standard interface to handle transactions between nodes. While the hierarchy never disappeared, many aspects of society were remade in the shape of the assembly line. Children go through school one grade at a time, the economy is made of supply chains and consumer-producer pairs, money is printed by the Fed and filtered to the economy through a chain of financial institutions. Even software is built by layering on components on a stack going through different stages and pipelines. 10 | 11 | Today, I believe we are going through another major transition: The Information Revolution. While it’s become out of fashion to point this out, it’s undeniable that civilization is being rebuilt. So what is this era’s civilizational primitive? It seems clear to me it’s _the network_. Unlike the pyramid and the supply chain, the network topology requires less coordination; it’s emergent, self-improving, and self-organizing. The radio, telephone, and the internet are straightforward examples of networks. But if you look deeply, you’ll see that networks are infecting almost everything else: money flows through payment networks (and Bitcoin is bootstrapping money on the network), startups and open-source proved that flatter network-like structures could be a superior way to work, and even software is changing to be built through networks of packages, APIs, and cloud computing. And while schools remain stubbornly unchanged, innovation at the edges resembles a network: kids learn to code and make on networks like Scratch and [Replit](https://replit.com), and they learn how to solve problems on networks like [Synthesis](https://synthesis.is). How will networks change government and politics? Arguably politics is already changed. Today policy is made not top-down but through a decentralized network of universities, think tanks, donors, and politicians. [The Network State](https://thenetworkstate.com) is an attempt to describe the future of governance. 12 | 13 | While the network, like its predecessors, is a neutral tool, I believe it creates a slightly more free world. Strict hierarchies meant that people were stuck in castes and bad luck. The assembly line reduced people to cogs in a giant machine. While the network affords people more freedom to self organize and choose which networks to affiliate with. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/replit_ide.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "Repl.it is not an IDE", 3 | "date": "09/15/2020" 4 | } 5 | --- 6 | 7 | When a new thing is invented, we're often stuck with the old words to define it. The first car was a "horseless carriage," and the first computer was a "giant brain." In the same inaccurate way, Repl.it is an "online IDE."[1] 8 | 9 | Repl.it gets its name from "REPL", the Read Eval Print Loop, a basic language tool found in most modern programming languages and environments. It's a tool that allows you to interact with a program by reading, evaluating, and printing data. 10 | 11 | If you think about development environments as a continuum from REPL to IDE, you can see how Repl.it is located closer to the REPL end. It's a tool for exploratory programming. It's for playing with ideas. 12 | 13 | Repl.it is a reaction to the modern software development grind, where many developers spend their time waiting for builds, running tests, fighting with linters, and configuring frameworks. It's an attempt to get back to the basics of programming -- to make coding fun again. 14 | 15 | To use Repl.it you don't have to ditch your IDE. You can use it to investigate a library's design, try out a new language feature, experiment with a new framework, or even use it to build and host a side-project. 16 | 17 | Repl.it collapses the entire development lifecycle into a simple interface. No need for pull requests, continuous integration, or deployment. You simply code and its live! With [Multiplayer](https://repl.it/site/multiplayer), you can even do all this with other people in real-time. 18 | 19 | If your IDE is a car, Repl.it is a motorcycle. If your IDE is a desktop computer, Repl.it is an iPad. If your IDE is a skyscraper, Repl.it is a cozy vacation house. 20 | 21 | Repl.it is a tool for exploratory programming. It's for playing with ideas. 22 | 23 | Repl.it is a tool for sharing code. It's for building community. 24 | 25 | Repl.it is a tool for education. It's for learning to code. 26 | 27 | Repl.it, however, is **not** a tool for building large-scale software. It's not for your legacy codebase. 28 | 29 | Repl.it is a tool for building side-projects. It's for hosting fun apps. 30 | 31 | Repl.it is a tool for experimenting with new ideas. It's for being creative. 32 | 33 | Next time you have an idea, kickback on the couch and hit up [repl.new](https://repl.new). You can always go back to your IDE when you need it. 34 | 35 | --- 36 | 37 | [1]: It's unfortunately how we currently describe Repl.it on the marketing pages, which was necessary when Repl.it was unknown. However, this will change soon. 38 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/story.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "Do What Makes The Best Story", 3 | "date": "1/8/2020" 4 | } 5 | --- 6 | 7 | Kids are always telling themselves stories. Try to remember yourself as a child lying in bed, anticipating an exciting day tomorrow, and you'll probably remember telling yourself a story about how cool it's going to be, who's going to be there, and how much fun you'll have. Self storytelling might be more pronounced in kids -- they like to say it out loud -- but it never goes away and only subsides to the background in adults. Self storytelling is so essential for people that one of the most effective [techniques](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_behavioral_therapy) for treating depression and anxiety boils down to "tell yourself better stories." 8 | 9 | Life is also a form of self storytelling. We're continually retelling ourselves our life story, but very few people think of themselves as authors of their story, not mere subjects. People with extraordinary high-agency realize this early in life and start maximizing the interestingness of their life story. 10 | 11 | Having a fascinating life story is not just an exercise in vanity -- it has a real impact on your success in life. You'll have an easier time attracting friends as well as life and business partners. It'll also make it much easier to sell yourself or your products. It has a kind of compounding [halo effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo_effect). 12 | 13 | Startups also have to be good stories. A good business idea or market is not enough to endure the pain and have the motivation to get a startup off the ground. Without an interesting story about the founding of the company and the vision, you'll have a hard time attracting talent and money. Notice how the most successful startups in the world all have remarkable genesis stories. 14 | 15 | So next time you're faced with a tough decision, consider the path that makes a more interesting story. If it turned out to be the wrong decision to have made, you'd at least be fun at dinner parties. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/essays/stuffjs.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "title": "stuff.js", 3 | "author": "Amjad Masad", 4 | "date": "12/11/2012", 5 | "hidden": "true" 6 | } 7 | --- 8 | 9 | With the explosion in online tools that allow to write, share, and run HTML, CSS, and JavaScript 10 | like [JSFiddle](http://jsfiddle.net/), [CSSDeck](http://cssdeck.com/), [codepen](http://codepen.io/) 11 | and many others!

In addition to that, many PCs come with no Arabic pre-installed and no character annotations on the keyboard. This lead to a generation of computer and internet users using English characters to express Arabic words and meanings. This is often referred to as transliteration or more commonly “Arabezy” or “Arabish” (comes from the blending of Arabic and English words). 16 | 17 | One of the fundamental activities we do online is Search, and for Arabic speakers used to transliteration [Yamli](http://yamli.com) is a lifesaver. It works by converting your transliterated English words into Arabic so you can use the language you’re used to in day-to-day chat and messaging to search for Arabic content on the Web. However, Yamli isn’t mobile optimized and frankly, it’s a pain to use on the phone. 18 | 19 | Here is how Waraby makes Arabic mobile search delightful: 20 | 21 | #### Simple 22 | 23 | It’s a full screen App with a wide textarea that auto scrolls down when focused to give enough room for suggestions. 24 | 25 | waraby layout 26 | 27 | #### Responsive 28 | 29 | Suggestions are neatly aligned under the word being typed with the highest confidence result at the top. Furthermore, hitting search will open the Arabic-based Google search for the best results. 30 | 31 | waraby is responsive 32 | 33 | #### Attention to Detail 34 | 35 | If you hit back while on the search result you can go back to Waraby with your latest search query waiting for you. 36 | 37 | waraby back button 38 | 39 | It handles long queries gracefully. 40 | 41 | waraby long queries 42 | 43 | Finally, If you decide to visit the app and start using it, don’t forget to add it to your [home screen](http://support.apple.com/kb/TI42). 44 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/pages/about.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | My name is Amjad Masad. 2 | 3 | I'm the CEO and founder of [Replit](https://replit.com), an online coding environment that makes coding more fun, approachable, and social. Starting a new project goes from countless hours of setting up a development environment to the two seconds it takes to start up a new repl in your browser. 4 | 5 | Computers are the most powerful tools to exist in the history of humanity. Sadly most people are mere consumers of these machines. Only a relative few -- the professional software developer -- can use this superpower to its fullest extent. It’s creating an unbalanced world where there are programmers, and then there are those who are programmed. The situation is analogous to literacy before the printing press, where only the powerful had access to books and written communication. The invention of the printing press led to democratic, scientific, and industrial revolutions, but it took about a century from creation to revolution, which meant that an entire generation of people to grow up with new skills, outlooks, and ways of learning and communicating. 6 | 7 | Replit will bring the next billion software creators online, and will accelerate the shift towards a world where software and the internet are truly The Great Equalizer. Soon anyone, regardless of place or economic status, will be able to create software and generate wealth on the internet. If we’re successful, anyone who's willing to learn and generate good ideas will be wealthy. 8 | 9 | If this mission speaks to you, you should consider [working with us](https://replit.com/careers). 10 | 11 | Before founding Replit, I was a tech lead on the JavaScript infrastructure team (which I 12 | helped start) at Facebook. We built and maintained open source tools that made 13 | JavaScript development easier, accessible, and generally better. We built and/or 14 | maintained things like the [Babeljs compiler](http://babeljs.io), 15 | [Jest](https://facebook.github.io/jest/), and the [React 16 | Native](http://facebook.github.io/react-native/) packager. Some form of this 17 | team is still going strong and now are doing even more amazing things like the 18 | Yarn package manager. 19 | 20 | Before that I was #1 employee at [Codecademy](https://codecademy.com). I did 21 | some tech-leading, built product and infrastructure. Being that early at a 22 | high-growth consumer startup is a great, albeit compressed, learning 23 | experience. 24 | 25 | Before that I was briefly at Yahoo. And before that I was going to college and on the side I worked in cybersecurity. 26 | 27 | As for non-work stuff, I'm into powerlifting and grilling steaks. I also like to read and mostly interested in philosophy of mind and AGI. Understanding and potentially simulating the mind is what kept me interesting in computers as a kid. I'm also interested in tradition and paleoanthropology. There is so much that's great about the modern world but there is also so much to be desired when it comes to living a fulfilling and healthy life. And I think the past holds more wisdom than people like to admit. 28 | 29 | I enjoy scifi movies, especially old ones. Some of my favorites include The 30 | Forbidden Planet, Brazil, and Colossus: The Forbin Project. I'm of the opinion 31 | that good Hollywood movies are [on the 32 | decline](https://whyevolutionistrue.wordpress.com/2016/04/05/the-decline-of-good-hollywood-movies/). 33 | 34 | ![pictuer](https://amasad.me/public/images/pic.jpeg) 35 | 36 | Here are some interviews/articles written about me: 37 | 38 | * [Invest Like the Best podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/amjad-masad-the-future-of-software-creation/id1154105909?i=1000592027219) 39 | * [ARK Invest podcast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bO0GunZCio8) 40 | * [WSJ: 10 Things to Love About America](https://www.wsj.com/articles/10-things-to-love-america-patriotism-liberty-immigrant-amjad-masad-tech-silicon-valley-woke-crt-11640902246) 41 | * [Moment of Zen Podcast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrk4IVHyvZo) 42 | * [This Week in Startups podcast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isIpbcH_N80) 43 | * [The Best Business Show podcast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzeGAGhsjb8) 44 | * [Replit: Remix the Internet](https://www.notboring.co/p/replit-remix-the-internet) 45 | 46 | Older stuff: 47 | * [An interview with a Japenese 48 | magazine](http://gihyo.jp/dev/serial/01/software_designers/0042) 49 | * [An essay by Fadi 50 | Ghandour](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/20130919080958-1326123--young-hungry-and-waiting-to-be-unleashed) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/amjads-blog/pages/bio.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | Amjad Masad is a Jordanian American entrepreneur and engineer.

Feel free to include links to previous work or your portfolio. 30 | 31 | pick a bounty 35 | 36 | ## Do the work 37 | 38 | If the Bounty Poster selects your application, you'll see the "Accepted" badge on your application: 39 | 40 | time to do the work! 44 | 45 | Now it's time to do the work! 46 | 47 | Communicate with the Bounty Poster early and often - make sure you're both clear on requirements and expectations. 48 | 49 | ## Deliver the work 50 | 51 | When you've completed your work, return to the Bounty page and click "Submit Work." 52 | 53 | Add a description of the work (pro-tip: relate it to the acceptance criteria outlined in the Bounty) and link to the Repl where you've written the code. 54 | 55 | submit a solution 59 | 60 | The Poster will review your work and may ask for changes. 61 | If the changes are in the scope of the original Bounty, simply go back to the Repl, make the changes, and submit again. 62 | 63 | Once the Poster accepts your work, you're awarded your Cycles. 64 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/cycles/about-cycles.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | sidebar_position: 1 3 | --- 4 | 5 | # About Cycles 6 | 7 | ## What are Cycles? 8 | 9 | Cycles Banner 14 | 15 | Cycles are Replit's virtual tokens that can be used to purchase extra compute power and functionality for your Repls. 16 | 17 | Cycles [can be purchased](https://replit.com/pricing) for $0.01 USD each, starting at a minimum of 150 Cycles. They can be combined with any user plan. You can either make a one-time Cycles purchase or use Auto-Refill to start a monthly recurring Cycles subscription. That means basic plan users can unlock Power Ups as needed (e.g. Private Repls) without committing to a plan. With Cycles, Hacker plan users can surpass the 5 Boosts and Always On that come with their plan. 18 | 19 | Default view: 20 | 21 | Buy Cycles Modal 26 | 27 | Choose any number of Cycles by clicking on other: 28 | 29 | Buy Cycles Modal: Any number of cycles 34 | 35 | Create a monthly subscription by toggling Auto-Refill on: 36 | 37 | Buy Cycles Modal: Any number of cycles 42 | 43 | ## Managing Your Cycles 44 | 45 | Once you purchase Cycles, you can view your balance and usage within your "My Cycles" page located in your menu. 46 | 47 | My Cycles Page 52 | 53 | Once your Cycles balance is insufficient, your Power Ups will automatically turn off and you will need to repurchase Cycles to continue accessing the same functionality. 54 | 55 | Manage your subscription: 56 | 57 | - Click on the pencil, which will lead you to your Stripe page. 58 | - On the Stripe page you will be able to edit your current subscription or cancel it. 59 | 60 | ## Important Notes 61 | 62 | We also want to be clear, Cycles are NOT a cryptocurrency. They are a virtual token native to Replit's platform and do not have any value in real currency. 63 | 64 | Purchasing compute resources is just the first step for Cycles. We have a lot more in store for these tokens and what they will become. For now, we're excited to introduce this new Power Up method to our community! 65 | 66 | If you have any more questions about Cycles or how to use them, check out our Cycles FAQ [here](/getting-started/faq#cycles). 67 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/cycles/tipping.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | sidebar_position: 2 3 | --- 4 | 5 | # Tipping 6 | 7 | ## Overview 8 | 9 | Tipping is now available as a way to support and reward creators who provide value to our community with Cycles they can spend on Replit. 10 | 11 | If you want to tip a Repl, simply head to the project's cover page, tap one of the tip buttons, and wait for the success message to appear. 12 | 13 | tipping success 17 | 18 | To buy Cycles for tips, head to your [Cycles page](https://replit.com/cycles) and buy a one-time or recurring package. 19 | 20 | Head to our [community page](https://replit.com/community/all) and find some cool projects to tip today! 21 | 22 | ## What am I allowed to tip? 23 | 24 | You can only tip your favorite creators by tipping one of their _creations_. This includes Repls and Templates. 25 | 26 | You cannot go to someone's profile and tip them Cycles directly. 27 | 28 | ## Do I have to use Cycles? 29 | 30 | Yes, tipping on Replit is only available with Cycles. 31 | 32 | ## How can I earn more tips? 33 | 34 | By creating something awesome! The most tipped creators will be those that create fun and original projects for the Replit community. If people like what you've built, they will tip you! 35 | 36 | For a guide on how to give your Repls the best chance of getting noticed in the community, check out [this guide]/hosting/sharing-your-repl#publish-your-repl). 37 | 38 | ## Can I cancel a tip? 39 | 40 | If you clicked a tip button you did not mean to press, you will have a few seconds to click **Cancel Tip** in the bottom righthand blue box that appears. 41 | 42 | tipping canceled 46 | 47 | ## Can I get a refund on tips? 48 | 49 | No. All tips are final.

A free account gives you access to: 4 | 5 | - A user-friendly, no-setup online [integrated development environment (IDE)](https://replit.com/site/ide) for beginners with autocomplete and free [automatic hosting](https://replit.com/site/hosting). 6 | - Remote teaching capabilities, allowing teachers to connect with their whole class and help students 1-1 with [multiplayer](https://replit.com/site/multiplayer). 7 | - Support for Python, Java, HTML/CSS/JavaScript, and 50+ other [languages](https://replit.com/languages). 8 | - Support for games, graphics, audio and an easy-to-use database. 9 | 10 | Read on to learn how to take advantage of our free features. Everything mentioned in this post can be done with a free account. 11 | 12 | ## Repls 13 | 14 | Repls are the core of the Replit service, and they will always be available for all users. You can create as many repls as you like, and in any of the 50+ languages we support. Start by logging into your account, or [signing up for a free account](https://replit.com/signup). 15 | 16 | Once logged in, you can create new repls and access your existing ones by navigating to the "My Repls" tab found in the left side-bar menu. 17 | 18 | Create a new repl by clicking the blue "+" button in the top-right of your screen. You'll be prompted to choose a language and name your repl. Pick any language you like by typing a name in the search, or by browsing the available languages by category. 19 | 20 | Select the owner of the repl, and then click "Create repl". You will notice that repls belonging to free accounts are public. 21 | 22 | Learn more about [managing your repls here](/getting-started/managing-repls). 23 | 24 | For a practical intro to using repls, follow [this tutorial](/tutorials/introduction-to-the-repl-it-ide). 25 | 26 | ## Multiplayer 27 | 28 | Replit is the first fully multiplayer programming environment, meaning you can invite other people to code and collaborate with you. You can use this function to pair program with others, teach your classroom, create collaborative projects for your students, or simply present your work to others. 29 | 30 | For a practical intro to using the multiplayer feature, follow [this tutorial](/tutorials/pair-programming-using-multiplayer-with-repl-it). 31 | 32 | ## Teams 33 | 34 | The Teams feature allows you to share all your repls and folders by default. It isn't necessary for teaching, learning, or collaboration on Replit, but it can make it much easier to work with others. 35 | 36 | Teams for Education is now free for all educators. To learn more, check out [Teams for Education](/teams-edu/intro-teams-education). 37 | 38 | ## Compliance 39 | 40 | We take user privacy very seriously and only collect data insofar as it's important to provide our service. You can read more about our privacy policy [here](https://replit.com/site/privacy),) and go through our privacy FAQs [here](/teams-edu/privacy-faq). 41 | 42 | As a small, team we're unable to comply with the various ed-tech regulations around the world. However, you can use Replit completely anonymously without providing any identifiable information; just choose a language from our [languages page](https://replit.com/languages) and start coding. 43 | 44 | If you're teacher, one anonymous workflow you can use is to create a repl with the instructions and starter code, and then have your students fork the repl, work on the assignment, and send the link back. 45 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/getting-started/02-managing-repls.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Managing your repls 2 | 3 | To manage and keep track of all your repls, head to your Repls Dashboard. You can find it on your account by clicking on the 'My Repls' tab on the left-hand side. 4 | 5 | Repls are listed in order of when they were created, with the most recent first. Each repl has its own three-dot menu at the far right. Bringing up this menu will allow you to: 6 | 7 | - Edit the repl (change its name and description) 8 | - View its history 9 | - Fork the repl 10 | - Move the repl 11 | - Pin it to your profile 12 | - Delete the repl 13 | - Toggle privacy settings (subscribers only) 14 | 15 | ## Public/Private Repls 16 | 17 | By default all Repls created are 'public'. This means that anyone on Replit may discover and view the source code for these Repls. Users will be able to publish these Repls to the community and others will be able to view on comment on the Repl. 18 | 19 | Users with Hacker plan subscriptions or cycles may elect to make their Repl 'private'. This means that only the creator (and any one they explicitly invite) to the Repl may view the source code. This also means that the Repl will not be available to share to the community. 20 | 21 | Note: Private Repls will be inaccessible to other users on Replit, however, if the Repl is hosted (eg: HTML, Node.js, Django) the output of those Repls may still be accessible on the internet. If you are hosting sensitive information please use a non-hosted Repl (eg: Nix) to ensure complete privacy. 22 | 23 | ## Starring Repls 24 | 25 | You can "star" a Repl to mark it as a favorite. This means you can then easily filter your dashboard to show only your starred Repls by clicking on the star slider at the top of your dashboard. There is no limit to how many Repls you can star. Only you can see which Repls you have starred; this info will not appear in your profile. 26 | 27 | ## Searching 28 | 29 | ### Basic Search 30 | 31 | To search your repls, click on the search bar. You will be presented with the options "+ New" and "Search". Click "Search" and start typing keywords. This will filter repls whose title or language match any of the keywords (separated by spaces). 32 | 33 | Repls only need to match one of the keywords in order to be included in the results. 34 | 35 | Example: 36 | 37 | **Search Query:** `draft repl python3` 38 | 39 | **Returns:** 40 | All repls that satisfy one or more of the following conditions: 41 | 42 | - has `draft` in the title 43 | - has `repl` in the title 44 | - is a `python3` repl 45 | 46 | ### Search by Language 47 | 48 | You can search for repls in a specific language by using the `language:` filter. 49 | Typing in `language:` followed by the language you want to filter by will prompt 50 | you with language suggestions. 51 | 52 | Your search term will need to be the language name we use internally, which is why 53 | we suggest selecting from the provided list. For example, to search for all C++11 54 | languages, you would search `language:cpp11`. To search for HTML, CSS, JS repls, 55 | you would search `language:html`. This filter is case sensitive. 56 | 57 | ### Search by Title 58 | 59 | Since plain searches include results with matching languages, you can search within repl titles only using the `title:` filter. Your search term may not include spaces. 60 | This filter is case insensitive. 61 | 62 | Example: 63 | 64 | **Search Query:** `title:best project` 65 | 66 | **Returns:** 67 | Repls that satisfy one or more of the following conditions: 68 | 69 | - has `best` in the title 70 | - has `project` in the title 71 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/getting-started/04-clui-graphical-cli.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # CLUI, the Graphical CLI 2 | 3 | Replit has created a text-based interface to interact with various aspects of your account. This page serves as documentation of the various capabilities of CLUI. 4 | 5 | ## Accessing CLUI 6 | 7 | Navigate to the [CLUI page](https://replit.com/~/cli) to access the graphical prompt CLI 8 | 9 | ![clui](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/nav-to-clui.gif) 10 | 11 | The prompt will display in-line information about the commands which can be run. 12 | 13 | ## Walkthrough 14 | 15 | This video walks you through how to access and use the CLUI. 16 | 17 |

Other disciplinary actions may include unpublishing of your Repl(s), cancellation of a Bounty, and/or hiding/deleting comments and Bounty Applications. 11 | 12 | ### Can I republish my Repl after it's been unpublished? 13 | 14 | Yes. Revise your Repl to abide by the [Community Standards](https://replit.com/@moderation/Welcome), then republish. 15 | 16 | ### How can I appeal a Moderation decision? 17 | 18 | Contact the mods if you believe they took unfair action towards you. Appeal at the [Moderator Contact Website](https://contact.moderation.repl.co/) or reach out to [Support](https://replit.com/support) for site bans. 19 | 20 | ### What happens when I'm banned from the Community? 21 | 22 | When banned from the community, you cannot create posts, comments, share Repls, or participate in [Bounties](https://replit.com/bounties). However, you can still use the online IDE for features unrelated to community activity. If ready to rejoin and abide by the guidelines, contact us at the [Moderator Contact Website](https://contact.moderation.repl.co/). 23 | 24 | ### What happens when I'm banned from Replit? 25 | 26 | A ban from Replit means you cannot log into your account and all Repls will have been deleted. This often occurs for violating the [Terms of Service](https://replit.com/site/terms). Appeal your ban by making a ticket at https://replit.com/support if you are ready to abide by the Terms of Service. 27 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/legal-and-security-info/usage.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Usage Quota & Limits 2 | 3 | Replit has certain soft and hard limits in using its service. Hard limits are automatically enforced by the Service. Soft limits are consumable resources that you agree not to exceed. Details of these limits are shown at https://replit.com/site/pricing and may be updated there from time to time Long periods of inactivity may result in an account or your use of the Service being deemed inactive. 4 | 5 | - CPU per Repl: determined by plan (hard) 6 | 7 | - RAM per Repl: determined by plan (hard) 8 | 9 | - Concurrent Repls: 20 (hard) 10 | 11 | - Storage per Repl: 1 GB (hard) 12 | 13 | - Storage per account: determined by plan (soft) 14 | 15 | - Network bandwidth: 100 GB (soft) 16 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/power-ups/always-on.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | sidebar_position: 1 3 | --- 4 | 5 | # Always On 6 | 7 | Repls typically go to sleep after a period of inactivity. To make sure that your Repl is restarted, you can use the Always On Power Up. 8 | 9 | You can add Always On to your Repls by purchasing [Cycles](https://replit.com/pricing) or by subscribing to our [Hacker plan](https://replit.com/site/pricing), which comes with one Always On Power Up. 10 | 11 | ## What does Always On do? 12 | 13 | Repls ordinarily do not run unless someone presses the "Run" button or if [the Repl receives HTTP traffic](/hosting/deploying-http-servers). Always On runs your Repl when neither of those occur. When running your Repl, Always On will install packages and apply [your Run button configuration](/repls/dot-replit). 14 | 15 | Always On does not extend your Repl's lifetime, and all Repls are subject to go to sleep at any time. However, Always On will immediately run your Repl again whenever this happens. If your process exits on its own, Always On will not restart it. We recommend using [Replit Database](/hosting/database-faq) to persist information outside of your process. 16 | 17 | ## Enabling Always On 18 | 19 | You can toggle on Always On from your Repl. To enable it: 20 | 21 | 1. Navigate to your Repl 22 | 2. Open the info panel by clicking on your Repl's name in the navbar 23 | 3.

We'll go over how each works, available features, pricing, and more. Much of the information for Github Copilot in this doc was pulled from Github's Copilot marketing page and their associated docs. 8 | 9 | ## What is Ghostwriter? 10 | 11 | Ghostwriter is more than just an AI pair programmer. It is Replit’s suite of artificial intelligence features which include: Complete Code, Generate Code, Transform Code, and Explain Code. Complete Code is our flagship feature and it offers autocomplete-style suggestions as you code. 12 | 13 | ## What is Github Copilot 14 | 15 | GitHub Copilot is an AI pair programmer. It offers autocomplete-style suggestions as you code. You can receive suggestions from GitHub Copilot either by starting to write the code you want to use, or by writing a natural language comment describing what you want the code to do. 16 | 17 | ## How does Ghostwriter work? 18 | 19 | Ghostwriter returns results generated from large language models trained on publicly available code and tuned by Replit. To make suggestions and explain your code, Ghostwriter considers what you type and other context from your Repl like the programming language you're using. 20 | 21 | ## How does Github Copilot work? 22 | 23 | GitHub Copilot analyzes the context in the file you are editing, as well as related files, and offers suggestions from within your text editor. GitHub Copilot is powered by OpenAI Codex, a new AI system created by OpenAI. 24 | 25 | ## What are Ghostwriter's features? 26 | 27 | **Complete Code** - Ghostwriter leverages context to provide code suggestions as you're typing. Press `tab` to accept suggestions. 28 | 29 | 31 | 32 | **Generate Code** - Provide a natural language prompt, and let Ghostwriter generate code to help solve your problem. 33 | 34 | 36 | 37 | **Explain Code** - Highlight code, and Ghostwriter will walk through it step-by-step in plain English. This feature is especially useful when trying to understand other people's code or code you wrote in the past. 38 | 39 | 41 | 42 | **Transform Code** - Transform Code allows users to highlight blocks of code, describe the adjustments needed (like changing variable names), and Ghostwriter will provide a suggested rewrite of the code block. 43 | 44 | 46 | 47 | ## What are Github Copilot's features? 48 | 49 | Copilot offers two main features: autocomplete-style suggestions and generating code through natural language comments. Both features are used to generate code or entire functions in real-time. Copilot also integrates into multiple editors including Visual Studio, VS code, & Neovim. 50 | 51 | ## How much does Replit Ghostwriter cost? 52 | 53 | Currently, Ghostwriter costs 1,000 Cycles per month ($10 USD/month). Feel free to visit our [Ghostwriter marketing page](https://replit.com/site/ghostwriter) to upgrade and see more live examples of Ghostwriter in action. 54 | 55 | ## How much does Github Copilot cost? 56 | 57 | GitHub Copilot is available as a monthly and yearly subscription. The monthly subscription is $10 per calendar month and the yearly subscription is $100 per year. 58 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/power-ups/ghostwriter/explain-code.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | sidebar_position: 3 3 | --- 4 | 5 | # Explain Code 6 | 7 | Ghostwriter can give you step-by-step natural language explanations of your code with Explain Code. This feature is especially useful when trying to understand other people's code or code you wrote in the past. 8 | 9 | Consider this example from [100 Days of Code](https://replit.com/learn/100-days-of-python).

Navigate to your Repl 28 | 2. Open the info panel by clicking on your Repl's name in the navbar 29 | 3. Make your Repl private by pressing the Private toggle 30 | ![Making a Repl private from the Workspace](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/power-ups/private-workspace.png) 31 | 32 | ### From the My Repls page 33 | 34 | You can also make any of your public Repls private from the My Repls page. 35 | 36 | 1. Navigate to the My Repls page from the left sidebar 37 | 2. Hover over the "Public" copy on the card of the Repl you want to make private 38 | 3. Press the "Make private" button 39 | ![Making a Repl private from the My Repls page](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/power-ups/private-my-repls.png) 40 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/programming-ide/01-installing-packages.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Installing packages 2 | 3 | Replit will install most available Python and Javascript packages using [the universal package manager](https://blog.replit.com/upm). 4 | 5 | ## Searching For and Adding Packages 6 | 7 | On a Python or JavaScript Repl, you can search for a package to install by clicking on the icon on the sidebar in the workspace. Search for the package you want and select it to install the package or to view its documentation. Clicking on the "Add Package" icon will put it in a spec file and a lock file. 10 | 11 | Unless otherwise specified, your Repl will attempt to install the latest version of each package. 12 | 13 | ## Direct Imports 14 | 15 | If you would prefer to import directly, you can do that too (though we recommend using the Package Manager): 16 | 17 | Python: 18 | 19 | ```python 20 | import flask 21 | ``` 22 | 23 | JavaScript: 24 | 25 | ```javascript 26 | const express = require("express"); 27 | ``` 28 | 29 | This will install the latest version of the package into your Repl. A spec file and lock file will be created so the versions won't change. Wherever possible, we recommend using a file to manage dependencies. 30 | 31 | ### Guessing Failures 32 | 33 | When you add a package by importing, we guess what package you want based on the modules you are importing. This works well for most languages, but in Python we sometimes get it wrong. If that happens, you can request a specific package on the import line. 34 | 35 | ```python 36 | import twitter #upm package(python-twitter) 37 | ``` 38 | 39 | You can configure additional options for package guessing by reading about the [.replit](/programming-ide/configuring-repl) file. 40 | 41 | ## Spec Files 42 | 43 | Each language has a file that is used to describe the project's required packages: 44 | 45 | - Python: `pyproject.toml` 46 | - JavaScript (Node.js): `package.json` 47 | 48 | ### Python 49 | 50 | In a `pyproject.toml` file, you list your packages along with other details about your project. For example, consider the following snippet from `pyproject.toml`: 51 | 52 | ``` 53 | ... 54 | [tool.poetry.dependencies] 55 | python = "^3.8" 56 | flask = "^1.1" 57 | ... 58 | ``` 59 | 60 | This will tell the packager that your project requires at least Python version 3.8, and to install the flask package at version 1.1. 61 | 62 | ### JavaScript 63 | 64 | Note that `package.json` files are only for Nodejs/Express Repls (they do not work in HTML/CSS/JS Repls). A `package.json` file contains more information about the project, but also lists the dependencies. As an example, here is the `package.json` file you can include in a 65 | [Nodejs/Express template](https://replit.com/languages/nodejs): 66 | 67 | ```json 68 | { 69 | "name": "app", 70 | "version": "0.0.1", 71 | "description": "", 72 | "main": "index.js", 73 | "scripts": {}, 74 | "author": "", 75 | "license": "MIT", 76 | "dependencies": { 77 | "express": "latest", 78 | "body-parser": "latest", 79 | "sqlite3": "latest" 80 | } 81 | } 82 | ``` 83 | 84 | All the packages will be installed with the latest version. If you need a specific version number, you can replace "latest" with that version number or precede a version number with a carat `^` to indicate "this version or newer". For example: 85 | 86 | ```json 87 | "dependencies": { 88 | "express": "^4.16.3", 89 | "body-parser": "latest", 90 | "sqlite3": "3.1.12" 91 | } 92 | ``` 93 | 94 | This will install `express` at version 4.16.3 or newer, `body-parser` at the latest version, and `sqlite3` at exactly version 3.1.12. 95 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/programming-ide/07-replit-libraries.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Replit libraries 2 | 3 | While you can use nearly any package or library on Replit, we have also built several of our own.

In this case, we add a comment to one of the files. 24 | 25 | ![making code changes](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/gh/images/making-code-changes.png) 26 | 27 | After that, navigate back to the Version Control tab and see the file change. 28 | 29 | ![file change indication](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/gh/images/file-change-indication.png) 30 | 31 | Next, write a commit message in the text field and then press **Commit All & Push**. 32 | 33 | ![making the commit](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/gh/images/commitment.png) 34 | 35 | Sweet! Finally, you can check the code on GitHub to confirm that it was committed successfully. 36 | 37 | ![checking our changes on github](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/gh/images/check-github.png) 38 | 39 | ## Making a pull request 40 | 41 | Large projects that require asynchronous collaboration will often involve making pull requests to the remote repository to GitHub. The process of a Pull Request (PR) usually looks like: 42 | 43 | 1. Creating a new branch 44 | 2. Committing your changes to that branch 45 | 3. System Checks and Code Review 46 | 4. Merging 47 | 48 | To create a new branch, go to the Version Control tab and press the "+" icon next to the branch selector. 49 | 50 | ![creating a new branch](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/gh/images/new-branch.png) 51 | 52 | Next, name your branch. 53 | 54 | ![naming-branch](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/gh/images/naming-branch.png) 55 | 56 | Add a comment describing the changes you are committing. 57 | 58 | ![updating the code](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/gh/images/code-change-pr.png) 59 | 60 | After committing your changes on your branch, push the updated code in the Version Control tab, which syncs it to your remote repository. 61 | 62 | Navigate to the GitHub repository on GitHub and you should see a banner indicating that your new branch had recent pushes. Press **Compare & pull request** to create a PR. 63 | 64 | ![github showing a new commit](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/gh/images/new-commit-indication.png) 65 | 66 | After you add description and create your PR, the next step is usually to wait for someone to review your code. If code reviewing is disabled or if you own the GitHub repository, you should be able to merge without code review. In this case, code reviewing is disabled for this tutorial's repository so we can go ahead and merge. 67 | 68 | ![the merge button](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/gh/images/merge.png) 69 | 70 | After having merged the pull request, we can now see that our changes have been added to the repository! 71 | 72 | ![merge changes](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/gh/images/merge-changes.png) 73 | 74 | Of course we can't rely on the GUI 100% of the time since git gets to a pretty complex level. Let's learn how to use [git with the shell/terminal](git-shell)! 75 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/programming-ide/using-git-on-replit/05-running-github-repositories-replit.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Running GitHub repositories on Replit 2 | 3 | GitHub repositories can be run automatically on Replit. Head to https://replit.com/github to import a repository. Any public repository under 500 MB (or 1GB with Hacker plan) can be cloned. You can unlock private repos after authenticating with GitHub and purchasing private repls with [Cycles](https://replit.com/pricing) or with our [Hacker plan](https://replit.com/pricing). 4 | 5 | import modal 6 | 7 | From the modal above, you can select the repo, language, and owner of the repl. We will automatically detect the language if your GitHub repository already has a `.replit` file! 8 | 9 | ## Configuring a Cloned Repo 10 | 11 | When you clone a repository without a `.replit` file, we automatically show the visual `.replit` editor: 12 | 13 | Visual config editor 14 | 15 | This will automatically create the `.replit` file and make it possible to customize how the repl will run. 16 | 17 | You can use the shell to run any command and then set the "Run" button once you've decided what it should do. 18 | 19 | Clicking "done" will finalize the repl's configuration and close the visual editor. 20 | 21 | Adding a `.replit` file to a repository makes cloning fast with no configuration necessary. The configuration file can always be changed at any time. For more information on how to configure your repl, see the documentation on [configuring your repl](/programming-ide/configuring-repl). 22 | 23 | ## Adding a "Run on Replit" Badge 24 | 25 | 29 | 30 | After configuring a run command for your repl, you can add a badge to your repository README that will allow anyone to run your project automatically! 31 | 32 | ### Generate a badge 33 | 34 | 38 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/programming-ide/workspace-features/00-file-history.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # File History 2 | 3 | To make sure you never lose any of your work, Replit auto-saves your code as you write. If you ever lose an edit to your code that you'd like to recover, rewind back in time with File History. 4 | 5 | ## Accessing File History 6 | 7 | Open up a code or text file in the Workspace and hit the **History** button in the bottom-right corner. 8 | 9 | ![opening history](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/view-history.gif) 10 | 11 | ## Viewing previous versions of a file 12 | 13 | Once you've opened up File History, you can view previous versions of a file by using the scroll bar, the arrow buttons, and the **left** and **right** arrow keys. 14 | 15 | ![scroll bar demo](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/history-versioning.gif) 16 | 17 | ## Comparing previous versions to the current file 18 | 19 | Press the Compare Latest toggle in the bottom left hand of the File History pane to see in-line comparisons of your file at that point in time and the latest version. 20 | 21 | ![compare latest image](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/compare-history.gif) 22 | 23 | ## Restoring a previous version of a file 24 | 25 | If you want to restore a file to a previous version, just press the `Restore` button, which will restore. Don't worry, you won't erase any history. When you restore to a previous version, it is added as a new version to the file's history. 26 | 27 | ![restore history image](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/restore-history.gif) 28 | 29 | ## Viewing File History playback 30 | 31 | You can use the playback feature of File History to watch your file change over time like a movie. This can be useful for creating videos of your programming sessions. 32 | 33 | ![replay history video](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/history-replay.gif) 34 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/programming-ide/workspace-features/01-debugging.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Debugging 2 | 3 | Repls that are written in the following languages can use a built-in, multiplayer debugger: 4 | 5 | - C/C++ 6 | - Java 7 | - JavaScript (Node.js) 8 | - Python 9 | - With more coming soon (through [Nix](/programming-ide/getting-started-nix)). 10 | 11 | To get started with the debugger, click on the Debugger icon on the sidebar: 12 | 13 | ![Debugger panel](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/open-debugger.gif) 14 | 15 | Now you can start adding [breakpoints](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakpoint) to your repl: breakpoints are lines of the code where the program will be paused during execution while debugging. Breakpoints don't affect the program when run normally. When the program is paused, the Debugger sidebar will show the values of all variables, avoiding the need for adding print / log statements. 16 | 17 | When the program is paused, the other buttons will be enabled: 18 | 19 | - "Next Step" will advance the program to the next possible line where the program can be stopped inside your source code. For instance, if the current line is calling a function, "Next Step" will go inside the function. If it is the last line in a function, "Next Step" will return to where that function was called. 20 | - "Next Breakpoint" will advance the program to the next breakpoint, or until the program finishes if there are no more breakpoints after the current one. 21 | - "Stop" terminates the debugging session and kills the process that is being debugged. 22 | 23 | ## Multiplayer features 24 | 25 | When debugging a program in a repl, all participants will see all the actions that any other participant does. This means that the debugging experience will be shared by all the participants in a repl. This includes: 26 | 27 | - The breakpoints. 28 | - The place / time where the program is paused. 29 | - The contents of the variables. 30 | - The output of the console. 31 | 32 | ## Adding support for other languages through Nix 33 | 34 | Coming soon! 35 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/programming-ide/workspace-features/02-resources-panel.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Repl Resources 2 | 3 | You can find the current resource usage of your Repl in the bottom of the workspace sidebar. This includes the amount of **RAM**, **CPU**, and **Storage** currently being used by your Repl to run your code, the LSP, and other background services. 4 | 5 | ![opening the Resources panel](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/resources.gif) 6 | 7 | ## Why Monitor Repl Resources? 8 | 9 | It's important to monitor your resource usage to ensure that your Repl has enough resources to run smoothly. If you notice that your resource usage is consistently high, it may make sense to use a Boost to increase the resources your Repl can use, or make changes to your code so your program uses less resources. 10 | 11 | resources panel 12 | 13 | ## High Resource Usage 14 | 15 | You might be unsure about what high resource usage means, or why it is happening. It's important to remember that high resource usage is not necessarily a bad thing. As long as your experience in the workspace or your app is not degraded, high resource usage not a signal of something wrong. 16 | 17 | But if you do notice that your resource usage is consistently high and your experience with Replit is being affected, you may want to consider upgrading your Repl specs with Boosts, that can be activated using [Cycles]/cycles/about-cycles). With a Boost, you can 4-8x the CPU and RAM of your Repl, allowing for resource-intensive programs without affecting your or your end users' experience. 18 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/programming-ide/workspace-features/03-storing-sensitive-information-environment-variables.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Secrets and Environment Variables 2 | 3 | Sensitive information, such as credentials and API keys, must be kept secure. Keeping this information separate from your code helps to protect it from unauthorized access when you share your code with others. 4 | 5 | A common solution to give your application access to sensitive information is through the use of environment variables. By storing the information as key-value pairs in an environment variable, you can access it in your backend code. On Replit, you can add environment variables and access them using secrets. 6 | 7 | It's important to note that while users who clone your Repl will have access to the code, they must set their own values for the environment variables. This helps to maintain the security of sensitive information. 8 | 9 | ![the secrets icon](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/show-secrets.gif) 10 | 11 | ## How to Add, View, and Edit Environment Variables (Secrets) 12 | 13 | To add an environment variable, fill in the information and hit **Add new secret**. 14 | 15 | ![adding a secret](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/add-secret.gif) 16 | 17 | You can view or edit any previously saved variable by clicking on its name. The values are usually sensitive and are not shown by default. 18 | 19 | ![secrets tab with secret](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/edit-secret.gif) 20 | 21 | ## How to Use Environment Variables in Your Code 22 | 23 | To use environment variables in your code, follow the code examples provided in the Secrets panel based on your programming language. Here are examples in Python and JavaScript, assuming you have set environment variables with `DB_USERNAME` -> `admin` and `TOKEN` -> `38zdJSDF48fKJSD4824fN`, respectively: 24 | 25 | ![using a secret in code](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/images/animations/use-secret.gif) 26 | 27 | ### Python 28 | 29 | ```python 30 | import os 31 | print(os.getenv("MY_SECRET")) 32 | ``` 33 | 34 | ### JavaScript 35 | 36 | ```javascript 37 | console.log(process.env.MY_SECRET); 38 | ``` 39 | 40 | **Note:** You cannot set environment variables for Repls with only a frontend, such as HTML Repls. 41 | **Note:** To access environment variables set through the UI in the Shell of your Repl (e.g., with `echo $MY_VARIABLE`), you must reboot the Repl by running `kill 1` in the shell. 42 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/programming-ide/workspace-features/04-getting-repl-metadata.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Getting repl metadata 2 | 3 | In some cases, it's useful to automatically retrieve metadata about a Repl from within that Repl. Your Repl's **environment variables** are pre-populated with some data that you can use. However, please avoid printing out the entirety of your Repl's environment variables in a public Repl, as it will expose any secrets you've added. 4 | 5 | To access this data, first retrieve your Repl's environment variables. 6 | 7 | #### Retrieve environment variables in Node.js 8 | 9 | ```js 10 | console.log(process.env); 11 | ``` 12 | 13 | #### Retrieve environment variables in Python 14 | 15 | ```python 16 | import os 17 | 18 | print(os.environ) 19 | ``` 20 | 21 | #### Retrieve environment variables in Rust 22 | 23 | ```rust 24 | use std::env; 25 | 26 | fn main() { 27 | for (key, value) in env::vars() { 28 | println!("{}: {}", key, value); 29 | } 30 | } 31 | ``` 32 | 33 | To access a **single** environment variable from within a Repl, use the following examples: 34 | 35 | #### Access a single environment variable in Node.js: 36 | 37 | ```js 38 | const variable = process.env.REPL_SLUG; 39 | console.log(variable); 40 | ``` 41 | 42 | #### Access a single environment variable in Python: 43 | 44 | ```python 45 | import os 46 | 47 | variable = os.environ.get('REPL_SLUG') 48 | print(variable) 49 | ``` 50 | 51 | #### Access a single environment variable in Rust: 52 | 53 | ```rust 54 | use std::env; 55 | 56 | fn main() { 57 | let variable = env::var("REPL_SLUG").unwrap(); 58 | println!("{}", variable); 59 | } 60 | ``` 61 | 62 | Here is a table showing the most useful metadata accessible inside your Repl: 63 | 64 | | key | description | 65 | | --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | 66 | | `REPL_OWNER` | The username of the owner of the Repl. If your Repl is text-based and has no webserver, `REPL_OWNER` will reflect the value of the current user accessing the Repl | 67 | | `REPLIT_DB_URL` | The URL of your key-value Replit database | 68 | | `REPL_ID` | The unique UUID string of your Repl | 69 | | `HOME` | The home path of your Repl | 70 | | `system` | The system name of your Repl | 71 | | `LANG` | Text language and encoding | 72 | | `REPL_IMAGE` | The docker image that corresponds to your Repl | 73 | | `REPL_LANGUAGE` | The language of your Repl | 74 | | `REPL_PUBKEYS` | A stringified JSON object containing different public api keys | 75 | | `REPL_SLUG` | The slug of your Repl | 76 | | `PRYBAR_FILE` | The main/entrypoint file of your Repl | 77 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/docs/teams-pro/intro-teams-pro.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | sidebar_position: 1 3 | --- 4 | 5 | # Introduction to Teams Pro 6 | 7 | Teams Pro is a new and revolutionary approach to working, collaborating, and building. It's a shared repo for your entire team (and potential new team members), making it easier for you to work together. 8 | 9 | The platform it is built around four cornerstones which we used to inform its features: 10 | 11 | ## 1. Build 12 | 13 | - You can program and dogfood anything from a small script to building out a full MVP. 14 | - You can interview candidates easily and efficiently, thanks to [guest mode](/teams-pro/interviewing-candidates). 15 | - You can connect to GitHub, to push or pull all your code. 16 | - Your team can focus purely on programming, without worrying about the rest. 17 | 18 | ## 2. Collaborate 19 | 20 | - _Threads_ allow you to have asynchronous conversations across all repls so that feedback and conversations are never lost. You can highlight specific lines of code or writing, and assign a comment. 21 | 22 | Our existing annotations feature 23 | 24 | - _Multiplayer_ allows your team to work together on any repl, all at once or at different times. This is a great way to knowledge share and debug, or just build! 25 | 26 |

Let's dive into creating your first theme and get Replit looking just the way you want it to! 8 | 9 | Navigate to your [account page](https://replit.com/account) and scroll down to the **Themes** section Create a new theme, fill out the title, select a color scheme, optionally add a description, and hit **Create Theme**. 10 | 11 | ![creating a theme](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/themes/creating-theme.png) 12 | 13 | After creating your theme, you will be redirected to the Themes Editor. Let's first look at the **Global Theme** section and how each color option applies. 14 | 15 | ![global-theme](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/themes/global-theme.png) 16 | 17 | **Background** is the most noticeable color and the easiest one to get right. Notice how the entire page changes color as you edit it. Let's make it a very dark bluish color for this theme. 18 | 19 | **Outline** controls the color of borders. I'll choose a nice dark blue color to give off that cyberpunk experience. 20 | 21 | **Foreground** mostly controls text and icon colors. We're going to make the foreground a bluish-grey to give a lower contrast with the background, so as to not hurt the eyes through long coding sessions. 22 | 23 | **Primary** controls the color of most buttons. Fitting with the other colors we've selected, a more cyan-teal blue should do. 24 | 25 | **Positive** controls things like the color of the run button and those confirmation toasts that appear in the lower-right corner of the screen—anything that denotes something "positive". We've chosen a pale green color for this example theme. 26 | 27 | **Negative** colors appear when there is an error or if you are about to perform a dangerous action. A nice orange color will do here. 28 | 29 | ![global theme](https://replit-docs-images.util.repl.co/themes/global-theme-preview.png) 30 | 31 | Finally, hit **Apply Theme** to start using your new theme.

Thats me! My name is Joe and I’m Replit’s illustrator. 11 | 12 | I have been making art/graphics/multi media for the last 10 years. I studied Visual Media and excelled in experimental artwork. I draw for fun almost daily and I can’t stop thinking about aesthetics and concepts. It started with colouring in books when I was a kid I went from there basically. I have a huge love for making and appreciating art. 13 | 14 | I’m specifically drawn to art that rocks you to your core! Anything with wild colours, strange or abstract concepts, stuff that makes you feel something. 15 | 16 | My major influences come from surrealist art, psychedelic comics from the 70’s, 90’s cartoons, pop art, large scale public installations (sculpture and murals) and any festival artwork! 17 | 18 | My work is a fusion of these influences and I’m so lucky that I now get to create art for Replit on a full time basis. 19 | 20 | # How did you hear about Replit? 21 | 22 | This all started in 2018 when I was freelancing. Amjad hit me up after seeing an album cover I made and asked me to create some promo for a “bot building competition”. 23 | 24 | I was instantly interested in the project. I had never created a detailed robot artwork before so this commission was particularly exciting and challenging. 25 | 26 | ![replit bot competition](https://blog.replit.com/images/bot.jpg) 27 | 28 | I think what I took from this brief is that Amjad trusted my abilities and let me do my thing. In fact, every project has been like this. Whenever Amjad or Haya hit me up for artwork the projects never seemed stuffy or repetitive. The project outline is always clear and understandable and everything just seems to go smoothly. 29 | 30 | I’m always blown away by their vision and I’m happy that I get to help create an identifiable style and look for Replit’s brand. 31 | 32 | # Where can people see all the Replit art? 33 | 34 | You can see everything that I have made for Replit via the offical Replit Art Page - 35 | https://art.replit.com/ 36 | 37 | ALSO - For more behind the scenes work and regular art updates. 38 | Follow the Replit Art Gallery instagram page - 39 | https://www.instagram.com/replitart/ 40 | 41 | 42 | Thank you! 43 | 44 | ![robot blink](https://blog.replit.com/images/blink_gif.gif) 45 | 46 | 47 | 48 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/changelog-06-21.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: Changelog - June 2021 3 | author: Replit team 4 | date: 2021-07-02T18:00:00.000Z 5 | categories: news 6 | --- 7 | Welcome to the June edition of our monthly changelog, where we highlight some of our big and small feature releases, user experience changes, and bug fixes! 8 | 9 | 10 | We love hearing from you! Please leave any feedback you have [here](https://replit.canny.io/general-feedback). 11 | 12 | # Features 13 | 14 | - We released the first version of our multiplayer debugger! See the [blog post](https://blog.replit.com/multiplayer-debugging) for all the details. 15 | - You can now observe other users when multiplaying by clicking on their avatar. ![follow demo](images/changelog/follow-demo.gif) 16 | - You can now also see which file other users are in from the filetree. * 17 | - New dotfiles features: 18 | * nix repls can now use `~/${REPL_SLUG}/.config` to store their dotfiles / config files in a [XDG Base Directory Specification](https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html)-compliant way. 19 | * ssh and fluxbox dotfiles are now available at `~/${REPL_SLUG}/.config/{ssh,fluxbox}` respectively for all repls, nix or non-nix. 20 | - Have you ever had the urge to download one, single file from a repl? Now you can! Just click on the three dots next to file name and hit ‘Download’ to download your file. ![downloading just one file. amazing.](images/changelog/single-file-download.gif) 21 | 22 | # User experience changes 23 | - We rolled out an updated profile experience. Visit any replit user's profile to see their showcased repls. We really like this [one](https://replit.com/@LeviathanCoding?showcase=2)! 24 | - The Packages tab has been updated with a fresh coat of paint. Information is now more contextual and notifications happen inline. 25 | ![Packager UX update — packages expand inline now, and versions are exposed](images/changelog/packager-updates.png) 26 | - `.replit` and Secrets overrides are now evaluated more consistently in more places. In increasing order of priority: 27 | - The OS environment: 28 | - The environment baked into Polygott 29 | - The environment injected by Docker 30 | - The nix environment 31 | - The `.replit` file 32 | - Secrets 33 | 34 | 35 | 36 | # Bug fixes 37 | 38 | - GitHub commits should now properly attribute changes to your GitHub account, and will use a privacy email when that setting is enabled on your GitHub account. 39 | - We cleaned up some extra blank space near the home screen header. 40 | - Fixes around deleting team repls. 41 | - The notification icon is back in its correct location. 42 | - Deleting an open file could temporarily open a .env file. 43 | - Users sessions expire much less frequently, keeping you logged into replit longer. 44 | 45 | 46 | \* enabled for [explorers](https://docs.replit.com/misc/explorer) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/classroomoverview.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: View Student Performance with Classroom Overview 3 | author: Haya Odeh 4 | date: 2016-06-29T07:00:00.000Z 5 | categories: edu 6 | --- 7 | 8 | Before we decided to build [repl.it classroom](https://replit.com/site/teams-for-education), we paid a visit to one of the schools using us in the classroom. I felt excited and anxious at the same time; I was introduced to the teacher and students in the class, and then my job started as designer observing and paying attention to every single detail.[](preview end) 9 | 10 | The teacher explained the workflow and had two students assisting her to check on the students. Seeing the teacher and student’s frustration made me see a problem, I noticed that most of the students were trying to communicate their frustrations, but they were either embarrassed or too shy. Others gave up too soon, without even trying. The two assistants solution might have been a good idea, but for students knowing the fact that they’re being watched or might be judged made them hesitant to ask for help. Towards the end of the class I was handed a piece of paper and was asked to list the student names who completed the assignment successfully. 11 | 12 | A teacher should be able to see where her students are at—to have bird’s-eye view for the classroom so attention can be paid for the ones who need it the most, plus it would be good way to track progress. Hovering around each student individually can be time and energy consuming. 13 | 14 | ## Introducing Classroom Overview 15 | 16 | The *Student Overview* is a feature of the teacher dashboard that we’re introducing. Where previously you had to go into each assignment to see the progress for each student individually (which ironically mirrors the physical classroom experience described above). The teacher classroom dashboard is now divided into assignment and student sections. The assignments section lists out the assignments published or in draft and allows you to create a new assignment. The student section is all about the students, their names, completion percentages for all their assignments and the current submission status. 17 | 18 | ![classroom overview](https://i.imgur.com/5N4gMNj.jpg) 19 | 20 | Browsing the student submission status for assignments is as easy as going left and right. 21 | 22 | ![submission status](https://i.imgur.com/qAbJit8.jpg) 23 | *Teacher browsing assignments.* 24 | 25 | Assignments are listed as numbers but by hovering on the number the assignment name pops up as a reminder of that particular assignment. 26 | ![assignmnet popup](http://i.imgur.com/qAbJit8.jpg) 27 | *Teacher is hovering to check the name of the assignment* 28 | 29 | We did our best to make this as visually comprehensible as possible. Colorful icons, and a vertical and horizontal line highlighting to give you contextual awareness while browsing your student overview. 30 | ![assignmnet popup](http://i.imgur.com/j4hwQPp.jpg) 31 | *Teacher hovering on a complete state* 32 | 33 | Teachers that we showed this too were really excited about it. We’re 34 | passionate about building the tools to make your jobs—as teachers—easier so let us know what you think about this. This product is currently in closed beta but you can sign up for it [here](https://repl.it/site/classrooms). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/commandbar.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: CLUI Command bar and Search 3 | author: Moudy Elkammash and Sergei Chestakov 4 | date: 2020-08-27T00:00:00.000Z 5 | cover: https://blog.repl.it/images/replit-logo-and-name.jpg 6 | categories: product 7 | --- 8 | 9 | One of the challenges of adding new functionality to any interface is balancing discoverability with visual clutter. We've written before about how a [universal command bar](https://blog.repl.it/clui) can be a great way to expose features without overloading the UI with buttons. This pattern already works well for us in our mobile interface, so now we're bringing it to desktop! Here's a demo of what it looks like: 10 | 11 | ![Demo of Command bar](images/commandbar/demo.gif) 12 | 13 | The new command bar replaces our old shortcuts and file switcher modal. Just like before, you can use keyboard shortcuts (Cmd/Ctrl + P to switch files, Cmd/Ctrl + K to bring up all the options, etc) to interact with it. As we add more commands, power users will be able to have a keyboard centric experience while beginners can learn about features by exploring the different options. 14 | 15 | Among the new features introduced in the updated command bar is Search! Search indexes the contents of every file in your project (with the exception of hidden files such as `node_modules` and anything in your `.gitignore`) and allows you to see every instance of a query across every file in your repl. From there, you can scroll through the results, see which line and file they appear in, and select a result to navigate directly to that line in the code like so: 16 | 17 | ![Demo of Search](images/commandbar/search.gif) 18 | 19 | You can access Search via Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + F or by bringing up the command bar and typing “search”. 20 | 21 | We're still thinking about the best way to surface these commands. Although keyboard shortcuts are the fastest way to use the command bar, they're notoriously underused and hard to discover. In the future, we'll likely add a dedicated button that opens the command bar directly. In addition, other primary actions can expose a way to open the command bar prefilled with a command (like Cmd/Ctrl + P opens the command bar directly in the "find" command). 22 | 23 | Open up a repl and give it a try! 24 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/community-video-competition.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: "Community Video Competition" 3 | author: Patrick Coleman 4 | date: 2020-06-23T07:00:00.000Z 5 | categories: events 6 | --- 7 | 8 | Over the past week, we ran a video competition for Replers.

Click [here](https://blog.replit.com/themehowto).*** 10 | 11 | It's spooky season, so we have a spooky feature for you: Dark Mode™ is now available for everyone on Replit! 12 | 13 | Just open your sidebar and click the moon to enter the shadow realm. Click the sun to switch back. 14 | 15 | ![Dark Theme](images/dark_mode/theme_switching.gif) 16 | 17 | Dark theme will work across the app — from the homepage, 18 | 19 | ![Dark Homescreen](images/dark_mode/dark_homescreen.png) 20 | 21 | to the workspace: 22 | 23 | ![Dark Workspace](images/dark_mode/dark_workspace.png) 24 | 25 | to the rest of the site. 26 | 27 | 28 | ### Where we're going 29 | This update has been enabled by a lot of work we're doing on Replit's design system. [Tyler](https://twitter.com/tylerangert), [Alex](https://twitter.com/alex_frantic), Ashlynn & I have restructured & simplified how we use css variables. And we've been building out reusable components and visual utilities that can render across themes. 30 | 31 | This infrastructural work makes it a lot easier to do some really useful and cool things with our interface. Dark mode is a good first step — avoiding being blinded in the middle of the night. In the future, it will enable us to do things like have custom themes — personal themes, themes for a team or class, etc. 32 | 33 | It also means it'll be much easier to make sure our UI is accessible. Our refactored color tokens have higher foreground/background contrast across the board. And by building accessibility best practices into our components, it means engineers get them for free when they take components off the shelf. It also makes high-contrast themes, or themes for colorblind users, will be much easier for us to make. 34 | 35 | 36 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/first-irl.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: Repl.it IRL 3 | author: Yev Barkalov 4 | date: 2018-06-13T03:19:49.000Z 5 | categories: events 6 | --- 7 | 8 | On Monday, June 11th, we had our first Repl.it Meetup and it was super awesome! 9 | 10 | ![replit meetup](/public/images/blog/replit-irl-6-11-18/talking.jpg?p=np) 11 | 12 | A bunch of Replers from teachers to students came to the Repl.it office to enjoy pizza, meet the team, chat with other Replers, and also spend some time coding in a mini hackathon where the prompt was to make the most overcomplicated "Hello World" program possible. 13 | 14 | ![coding at replit meetup](/public/images/blog/replit-irl-6-11-18/laptops.jpg?p=np) 15 | 16 | One of the coolest projects made at the meetup was a program that would take a font, generate a separate Python+Turtle program that would draw the text "Hello World" in that specified font, and then he presented the resulting Python program as being the elaborate "Hello World" program. 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | The code for generating the "Hello World" program itself is [here](https://repl.it/@DavidLindes/repl-irl-gen-hello) and, if you're interested in seeing the other projects made, they were collected via commenting on our [I Built This post](https://repl.it/ibuiltthis/repls/Replit-IRL/44944). 21 | 22 | We certainly enjoyed meeting some of our users as well as seeing everyone have a fun time hacking and we're planning for the next Repl.it IRL to be on July 11th! 23 | 24 | ![replit meetup laughing](/public/images/blog/replit-irl-6-11-18/laughing.jpg?p=np) 25 | 26 | If you're interested in putting together your own Repl.it IRL, shoot us an email at [contact@repl.it](mailto:contact@repl.it) and that's all for now! 27 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/genuary.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: "It's Genuary!" 3 | author: "Ornella Altunyan" 4 | date: 2023-01-26 5 | cover: https://blog.replit.com/images/genuary/cover.jpg 6 | categories: events 7 | profiles: ornella,tyler,ink 8 | --- 9 | ![images/genuary.png](https://blog.replit.com/images/genuary/cover.jpg) 10 | 11 | You may have thought that we're in the month of January, but we're actually in the month of [**Genuary**](https://genuary.art/)!

28 | 29 | If you've been a part of the Replit community for a little while, you may remember [Replit Creates](https://creates.replit.com), our very own month-long celebration of creative coding that happened in August. We don't think making beautiful things should be confined to one month, so we've decided to host a celebration of Genuary on Replit. 30 | 31 | On the official [Genuary website](https://genuary.art/), there are [prompts](https://genuary.art/prompts) for each day of the month, so we're also celebrating on Replit! Our Replit staff have made it even easier for you to participate by creating templates for some of the prompts, which you can find below. 32 | 33 | We'll also be hosting a Genuary Celebration on January 31st with special guest [Saber Khan](https://www.edsaber.info/) from the [Processing Foundation](https://processingfoundation.org/)! Saber, along with Tyler and Ian from the Replit staff, will work through a Genuary prompt together and share other projects from the month-long challenge.

No process is perfect, but ultimately we're looking for the kinds of people who will succeed here: those with high autonomy, pragmatism, strong communication and empathy for our users. 20 | 21 | No matter the role, here are three things you can do to stand out in interviews: 22 | 23 | ### 1. Act like an owner 24 | 25 | We keep our process minimal and ship often because everyone at Replit drives their projects to completion and owns their results. We want to hire driven people and then get out of their way. 26 | 27 | In interviews, we often ask candidates to solve a real-world and true-to-Replit problem. That’s your chance to drive the discussion like you’re leading the project. Ask questions. Be proactive. Think about timing and scope, too. 28 | 29 | At Replit, when we lean into the uncomfortable, we call it "seeking pain". When things seem hard or don't go your way, show us you won’t give up or retreat. Be someone who is incapable of being blocked. This includes knowing when you don’t know something, and asking for help. 30 | 31 | ### 2. Present clearly 32 | 33 | We’re a remote-first company, working across timezones. We strive to make every meeting, document, and demo deliver the message without wasting time. 34 | 35 | In interviews, we look at how you convey your ideas, whether written or verbal. Equally, we also look at how well you listen and internalize feedback. 36 | 37 | Practicing this skill outside of interviews is a good idea. For example, I find writing things down before speaking helps me collect my thoughts and make my delivery more crisp. 38 | 39 | ### 3. Have a point of view 40 | 41 | We’re building a new kind of software creator platform. We’re inventing the playbook as we go. 42 | 43 | We want you to have opinions of how to make the product better and users happier. We are building Replit for everyone around the world who wants to build, and we need diverse perspectives. Don’t shy away from thinking radically or differently, but make sure you explain your thought process. 44 | 45 | A great way to develop this point of view is simply by building on Replit and being part of the community. You can find us on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/Replit), [Discord](https://discord.util.repl.co/join), or build and share on [Replit Community](https://replit.com/community/all). 46 | 47 | ## Growth 48 | 49 | All this being said, we are not looking for perfection. We are looking for your potential for growth & leadership. 50 | 51 | As a company, we promote growth through knowledge seeking and sharing. We have an education budget so you can take classes or purchase learning materials. We have book clubs. We have special guest talks. We also have fun weekly information sharing & hacking presentations, where a teammate shares something they know or get excited about to the rest of the company. We also promote growth by empowering you to lead big projects. 52 | 53 | We bring people in and then invest in them. 54 | 55 | ## Don’t Give Up 56 | 57 | If you didn’t move forward in the interview this time, don’t give up. Apply again in 6-12 months! In the meantime, build on Replit and give us product feedback. When you are passionate and determined, we take that as a positive sign. 58 | 59 | 60 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/history2-release.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: History++ - A Better Way to Do Versioning 3 | author: Giuseppe Burtini 4 | date: 2022-09-15 5 | cover: images/history2-release/history-diff-compare.png 6 | categories: eng,product 7 | --- 8 | 9 | Have you ever had to start over on a piece of code because you overwrote something by accident? Made an edit, replaced it, and then wished you could go back? 10 | 11 | Programmers have tools like `git` and the undo/redo stack to help them deal with challenges like this. Replit, of course, supports these things. 12 | 13 | But, we think there's a better way. Over the last week, we rolled out the new history UI to general availability. Here's what it looks like: 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | ## The Basics 18 | First, a bit of background. Whenever you make changes to your code, we add the [_operational transformations_](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational_transformation) (OTs) to a log of activity for that file. OTs are part of our multiplayer infrastructure, they effectively store the "intended change" every time you edit a file. We use this for reconciling potential conflicts when many users edit a file simultaneously. 19 | 20 | It turns out, this makes for a pretty cool approach to versioning and history. You don't have to do anything to benefit from it (it is happening anyway) and it produces a high-fidelity take on the historical states of your file, with no real mental overhead. 21 | 22 | ![A pointer to the "Repl history" link in the workspace](images/history2-release/history-how-to-get-there.png) 23 | 24 | 25 | ## The Utility 26 | 27 | With version control system based history, like `git`, you have to make an active decision to create a commit, so your intermediary states get lost. Worse, for many users, the concepts and interface are difficult. We love `git`, but it is just a piece of the puzzle. 28 | 29 | Here, you can browse a file's history, exploring it with the same interface that you normally use, seeing every change that has been made to it, and non-destructively restore to any specific version. We aimed for this to be lightweight, low-risk, and easy to use: a complement to the tools you are already using. 30 | 31 | ![A screenshot of the new history tool, showing a unit test suite written in JavaScript](images/history2-release/history-new-2.png) 32 | 33 | Once you've found a version you think is relevant or interesting, you can toggle on compare mode to see a side-by-side diff. You can also select and copy some subset of the version or click restore to bring your file back to where it used to be. 34 | 35 | ![A screenshot of a side-by-side diff-view](images/history2-release/history-diff-compare.png) 36 | 37 | ## The Fun 38 | 39 | One really cool way we've been seeing people use this is to use the playback feature -- which lets you watch your file's history like it is a movie -- to make videos of their programming sessions. 40 | 41 | We're going to do more to support sharing and social integration of these sessions going forward, but for now, it is already a really cool way to retroactively decide to share how you were thinking. 42 | 43 | Some other neat upgrades: 44 | 45 | - **Dark mode**: Old history didn't support dark mode. Sorry. New history does though! 46 | - **Mobile support**: Maybe you noticed that old history was real awkward on small screens? Mobile now gets first class history support! 47 | - **General polish**: You can browse the file tree like you would in the rest of your Repl, interact with a particular version like it is your regular code: copy-and-paste, compare, restore, and more. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/how-to-teach-yourself.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: New course - How to teach yourself coding with Quizlet Founder Andrew Sutherland 3 | author: Patrick Coleman 4 | date: 2020-07-29T07:00:00.000Z 5 | cover: https://repl.art/boothbot.png 6 | categories: edu 7 | --- 8 | 9 | Like many of you, we’ve been stuck at home, trying out new hobbies, attempting to learn new things, and anxiously waiting until life “gets back to normal.” Well, regardless of how you’ve been spending your time during COVID, if you (or a friend or family member) have been wanting to learn how to code, we want to help! 10 | 11 | At Repl.it, it’s our mission to make programming easier and more accessible, which is why we’ve built the best programming environment for learners. We built tools to get you coding right away without needing to fuss around with complex setup. But we also make it easy to progressively uncover advanced concepts as you learn, host your code, share and collaborate with friends, and the list goes on. 12 | 13 | So true to our mission, today we’re announcing a new course: “How to teach yourself coding.” 14 | 15 | Teach Yourself Programming Course Registration 16 | 17 | This one-month course will show you how to get started coding, and how to keep up your momentum when you get stuck. It will start with absolute basics about how computers and programming languages work, and get you started on making your own basic website. The course will include instruction on how to write, fix, and test your own code, how to learn from other peoples’ code, and the basics of computer security and ethics. The primary languages will be HTML/CSS/Javascript, the building blocks of the modern web. By the end of the class, you’ll have a program you built yourself, and you’ll have momentum to keep teaching yourself more. 18 | 19 | [Register now](https://forms.gle/ypdm5RL844whTDAB8) or read on for more details. 20 | 21 | The course will be taught by celebrity guest teacher, [Andrew Sutherland](https://asuth.com/), who is the founder of [Quizlet](https://quizlet.com/), an educational software tool serving millions of students and teachers around the world. Andrew started Quizlet at age 15, when he needed a tool to help himself learn in a high school French class. He then taught himself how to program by building lots of different websites, each one more complex than the next, until he started on Quizlet. 22 | 23 | Logistics: 24 | - Monday, Wednesday, Friday from 4:00 - 5:00pm pacific time 25 | - Will stay on until 5:30 for discussion and extra help 26 | - Monday, August 3 - Friday, August 28 27 | - It’s ok to join late or take time off for vacation. We’ll be releasing recorded videos to all registered attendees.

One thing that's been missing 10 | for a long time is the ability to access the internet from repls. Being able to 11 | call APIs or remote servers is something programmers can't live without. That's 12 | why we're excited to announce that starting now we're openning internet access 13 | for all! 14 | 15 | Previously, only users with a paid plan could run repls with internet access, 16 | and everyone else would get an error. (Read more about our [pricing 17 | update](pricing-update-2018)) 18 | 19 | This means that you can now write and run repls that scrape data or access APIs, 20 | regardless of whether you have a paid subscription or not. Sharing or embedding 21 | an internet-accessing repl will also work for those using it - so if you wanted 22 | to use Repl.it to write examples for your public-facing API, now you can do so 23 | without worry! 24 | 25 | # Examples of Repls that access the Internet: 26 | 27 | 28 | ## Scraping Wikipedia Web Pages: 29 | 30 | 31 | 32 | ## Accessing Public APIs: 33 | 34 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/kotlin.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: Introducing Kotlin REPL 3 | author: Amjad Masad 4 | date: 2017-05-18T00:00:00.000Z 5 | categories: product 6 | --- 7 | 8 | On the heels of Google 9 | [announcing](https://venturebeat.com/2017/05/17/android-now-supports-the-kotlin-programming-language/) 10 | native Kotlin support on Android yesterday, we thought it'd be cool to get a 11 | [Kotlin REPL](/languages/kotlin) up so that people can try it. 12 | 13 | ![kotlin](https://i.imgur.com/gka1qrl.gif) 14 | 15 | Give it a spin [here](/languages/kotlin). 16 | 17 | It's still in beta so let us know if you hit any bugs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/markdown.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: Previewing Markdown in Repls 3 | author: Tim Chen 4 | date: 2019-08-02T00:42:33.000Z 5 | categories: product 6 | --- 7 | 8 | When our community members want to provide instructions within a repl, 9 | the most common pattern we've seen is in a `.txt` file, or as a code 10 | comment. Users quickly figured out that while they could make markdown 11 | files, there was no way to render it in a more readable format. Today, 12 | that changes. We're happy to announce that you can now preview markdown 13 | in repls! 14 | 15 | # How to get Markdown Previews 16 | 17 | It's really simple to use - simply create a markdown file (a file with an 18 | `.md` extension) and viola - you'll see a button to edit and preview in 19 | the top right corner of the editor. 20 | 21 | Feel free to edit your markdown file, and toggle back and forth between 22 | preview mode and edit mode as much as you like! 23 | 24 | ![markdown preview](https://blog-images.amasad.repl.co/markdown-preview.gif) 25 | 26 | Opening a markdown file will show the preview by default, so you can use 27 | this as a README for your repl, or to provide special instructions. 28 | 29 | # Features 30 | 31 | Aside from being able to preview markdown, we also support full syntax 32 | highlighting for code blocks. It will be highlighted in the same theme 33 | as the editor itself. 34 | 35 | You can also copy code blocks by clicking on the copy icon in the 36 | top-right corner of code blocks. 37 | 38 | We have ideas for more features, but we'd also like to hear from you. 39 | Read on for more! 40 | 41 | # Next Steps 42 | 43 | Right now, markdown previews are only supported on Monaco, which we use 44 | for non-mobile platforms. Mobile support is coming soon. 45 | 46 | Since it's built right into the editor, we have ambitious ideas for how 47 | it can be better integrated with the rest of the Repl.it experience. 48 | One such example of a feature we want to see is the ability to import 49 | a code block directly into a file. This would be especially helpful for 50 | using markdown as tutorial instructions. 51 | 52 | We'd also like for files named `README.md` to be the default selected 53 | file, if it exists, so users landing on your repl will see your README 54 | first. 55 | 56 | Got more ideas for us? We'd love to hear them over on our 57 | [feedback channels](/feedback)! 58 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/my_repls.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: New and improved repls page 3 | author: Amjad Masad 4 | date: 2018-02-26T08:00:00.000Z 5 | categories: product 6 | --- 7 | 8 | People use Repl.it in a variety of ways; some use it for building and shipping 9 | applications, while others use it for working on homework, and many others use 10 | it as a quick prototyping/experimentation tool. Supporting all these use cases 11 | (and more) is something we care a lot about, but up until now there wasn't an 12 | easy way to, for example, quickly go back to a project that you continue to work 13 | on every day. 14 | 15 | Today we're excited to announce some of the changes that we've 16 | been testing for the past couple of weeks. Going to ["my repls"](https://repl.it/repls) the 17 | first thing you'll notice is a big "Continue coding" section with the projects 18 | that we think you might want to go back and work on. 19 | 20 | ![my repls](https://repl.it/public/images/blog/my_repls.png) 21 | 22 | ## Starring 23 | 24 | Additionally, you can now star repls, so it's easy to go back to them! 25 | 26 |
27 | 28 | ## Quick repl creation 29 | 30 | Repl.it users usually code in 1-3 languages, but up until now you had to go to 31 | the full list of languages every time you wanted to create a new repl. 32 | For that, we've added a button that expands to include your three top-most used 33 | languages. 34 | 35 | 36 |
37 | 38 | ## Infinite load 39 | 40 | Paging can be clunky and slow; it's much easier just to scroll. 41 | 42 |
43 | 44 | ## Conclusion 45 | 46 | We're not done yet; there's a lot more left to be desired. Look out for a new 47 | and improved search bar. But for now, if you have any feedback, we'd love to 48 | [hear it](https://repl.it/feedback)! 49 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/new_repls.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: "New in Repls: autosave, custom urls, and more" 3 | author: Haya Odeh 4 | date: 2017-11-12T08:00:00.000Z 5 | categories: product 6 | --- 7 | 8 | We are always excited about launching new features and sharing with you, our 9 | dear users, what we’ve been up to. For the past few months, Amjad, Mason and I 10 | have been working hard and last night we quietly launched the new repl 11 | features. These features required a lot of infrastructure and data changes which 12 | is always tricky to execute. We ran into some technical difficulties last night 13 | with the data migration but was able to bring the site back up and things have 14 | been running relatively smoothly since then. 15 | 16 | However, since radical changes were required to get this out we’re still working 17 | through some of the issues. If you see a bug or if you have a repl that’s not 18 | working please let us know and we’ll fix it. We hope we have your support as we 19 | work through the issues. One thing we can promise you is that this change will 20 | unlock so many amazing features and long-term stability and reliability starting 21 | today. 22 | 23 | *Note that the classroom product is not affected by this at all. This is only a 24 | “repls” product change.* 25 | 26 | Now on to the new features 🥁🥁 27 | 28 | ## Autosave 29 | 30 | When we promise we deliver. As of last night your code is autosaved by 31 | default. The new interface will include only two buttons: the run and the share 32 | button. You don’t need to worry about saving your code anymore, we’ll do it for 33 | you, so no code is lost, all your work is saved in (**my repls**) . 34 | 35 | ![autosave](/public/images/blog/autosave.png) 36 | 37 | 38 | ## Name your Repl or we’ll name it for you 😊 39 | 40 | If you have an existing untitled repl, or if you can’t be bothered to name your 41 | Repl -- guess what -- we’ll do it for you! You might end up with incredibly 42 | funny names (thanks to the folks at 43 | [GfyCat](https://medium.com/@Gfycat/naming-conventions-97960fc40179) for 44 | pioneering this). Personally I can’t wait to see what Repl.it will name my 45 | untitled Repl! it’s so random! Here is what recent Repl looked like. 46 | 47 | ![repl name](/public/images/blog/repl_name.png) 48 | 49 | ## Unified Repl URLS (no more janky revisions) 50 | 51 | Okay okay.. Before you freak out about lack of revisions. 52 | 53 | ![freak out gif](https://media.giphy.com/media/13xHqoOQOdFu5a/giphy.gif) 54 | 55 | All your code’s history is accessible under a new label called **History**. 56 | 57 | Your new Repl has but one URL, and that’s because it’s autosaved -- meaning 58 | every time you change a file in your Repl, it will be automatically saved, and a 59 | copy of that file before the change will be stored in your Repl History. 60 | 61 | If you need to go back to one of your previous revisions, you can do that by 62 | clicking on the three dots menu on the right of the repl and click on 63 | **History**. 64 | 65 | ![history](/public/images/blog/history.gif?123) 66 | 67 | Revisions are sorted by date, with the newest first. By default we show only the 68 | latest from each day, but if you want to drill down each day you can. If you 69 | click the **restore** button, the file will be restored to that revision. It’s 70 | okay if you did that by mistake because you can go back and restore the 71 | previously latest revision which will now be just one record before the last 72 | one. 73 | 74 | As mentioned above, there is a lot more to this change that is more technical and 75 | will allow us to ship more exciting features in the near future. We'll do a 76 | technical write up soon if you're interested. 77 | 78 | Hope you like the new updates and, as always, we’d love to hear from you and if 79 | you have any feedback let us know on our [feedback channel](https://repl.it/feedback). 80 | 81 | Happy weekend and happy repling! 82 | 83 | Haya & the Repl.it team 84 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/postgresql-db-launch.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: PostgreSQL Database Preview Now Available On Replit 3 | author: Lincoln Bergeson, Xiaoyi Chen 4 | date: 2023-01-23T17:15:00Z 5 | cover: https://blog.replit.com/images/postgres-launch/Postgres_Header_image.png 6 | categories: product 7 | --- 8 | ![Header Image](https://blog.replit.com/images/postgres-launch/Postgres_Header_image.png) 9 | 10 | Databases and web apps go together like peanut butter and jelly. In a word, they're inseparable. And despite all the amazing innovations in NoSQL data stores, often a good old relational database is the most reliable tool for the job. 11 | 12 | We want to make it completely seamless to develop applications that need databases on Replit. Starting today, you can create and instantly begin to use PostgreSQL databases from within the Replit workspace. 13 | 14 | Here's how you use it. First, click the PostgreSQL icon in the Tools pane on the lower left hand side of the workspace. 15 | 16 | ![DB_Image_1](https://blog.replit.com/images/postgres-launch/DB_Image_1.png) 17 | 18 | Or, you can open a new tab and select PostgreSQL from there. 19 | 20 | ![DB_Image_2](https://blog.replit.com/images/postgres-launch/DB_Image_2.png) 21 | 22 | From this pane, you can provision a PostgreSQL database. Compared to most SQL offerings which can take several minutes, your database on Replit will be available within just a few seconds. 23 | 24 | ![DB_Image_3](https://blog.replit.com/images/postgres-launch/DB_Image_3.png) 25 | 26 | For now we are only offering one size of database: 100 cycles per day for 10GB. The database has 1 dedicated CPU and 4 GB of RAM to process your queries. 27 | 28 | Once you've created the database, you can start using it! The `DATABASE_URL` environment variable will have your connection string. To connect to your database with NodeJS using the `pg` package, you might use a code snippet like this: 29 | 30 | ```js 31 | const { Client } = require('pg') 32 | const client = new Client(process.env.DATABASE_URL) 33 | 34 | client.connect() 35 | 36 | client.query('SELECT $1::text as message', ['Hello world!'], (err, res) => { 37 | console.log(err ? err.stack : res.rows[0].message) // Hello World! 38 | client.end() 39 | }) 40 | ``` 41 | 42 | We've also created a SQL explorer that you can use to write SQL statements and see the contents of your database. 43 | 44 | ![Recap Header Image](https://blog.replit.com/images/postgres-launch/DB_SQL_Explorer.mp4) 45 | 46 | If you've purchased Ghostwriter, AI-based code completion for SQL will be available in the statement editor. 47 | 48 | For more information on your PostgreSQL database, check out: 49 | - [The docs](https://docs.replit.com/neon-database/intro) 50 | - [Learn how to use the database](https://replit.com/learn/intro-to-postgresql) 51 | - [Try building a Discord Bot with sentiment analysis](https://replit.com/@DavidAtReplit/Discord-Bot-for-Sentiment-Analysis) 52 | 53 | Under the hood, this product is powered by our friends at [Neon](https://neon.tech/) who have created a lightning-fast serverless database. The database will go to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity. Most clients should handle the reconnection seamlessly. 54 | 55 | In the near future we plan to offer much more flexibility and customizability in your database options. You'll be able to choose variable amounts of storage, different compute configurations, and even usage-based pricing, where you only pay for what you actually use. 56 | 57 | If you experience any issues with your database at all, please post in [the forum](https://ask.replit.com/) and we will get back to you as quickly as possible. Let us know what you think! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/profile2.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: "Your New Replit Profile" 3 | author: "Søren Rood and Omar Abdul-Rahim" 4 | date: 2022-04-18 5 | cover: https://blog.repl.it/images/profile2.png 6 | categories: product 7 | --- 8 | 9 | You may have noticed that the "My Repls" and "profile" pages look different. We decided to combine these surfaces into one unified page. The new profiles are fresh, more social, and more customizable than ever before. 10 | 11 | Go take a second and customize your profile! Add links, a banner, and pin your favorite Repl. 12 | 13 | ### What changed? 14 | 15 | We combined the My Repls and profile pages 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | Live presence 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | Read and leave comments straight from the profile 24 | 25 | 26 | 27 | Publishing to the community is only a few clicks away 28 | 29 | 30 | 31 | Add your social links (and your discord username) so people know where else to find you 32 | 33 | 34 | 35 | Set a profile banner 36 | 37 | 38 | 39 | ### What's next? 40 | 41 | On April 1st, we launched the new profile to 100% of users. 42 | 43 | We'll continue to iterate and make the experience better throughout the year. Some related features/ideas that are on our mind include: 44 | 45 | 1. Letting you follow other users. 46 | 2. We'd like to add more Repl sorting and filtering features. We want it to be really easy to find things that you make. Adding sorting and filtering would also make the experience better for others who are viewing content on your profile. 47 | 3. We want to make the pinned Repl area more customizable. That could look like: resizable showcase/pinned Repl area, automatically starting the repl when people visit your profile (so they don't have to click "run"), etc. 48 | 49 | If you helped with any early prototypes, participated in any user interviews, or were a part of the explorer beta, we want to say thank you! We could not have made it this far without your help. 50 | 51 | If this project seems interesting to you, consider checking out our [careers](https://replit.com/site/careers) page. :) 52 | 53 | ### Some profiles from our community! 54 | 55 | - [@Bookie0](https://replit.com/@Bookie0) 56 | - [@UltimateCoder40](https://replit.com/@UltimateCoder40) 57 | - [@NathanNat](https://replit.com/@NathanNat) 58 | - [@MrVoo](https://replit.com/@MrVoo) 59 | - [@VapWasTaken](https://replit.com/@VapWasTaken) 60 | - [@HyperAlternative](https://replit.com/@HyperAlternative) 61 | - [@RandomCodingBoy](https://replit.com/@RandomCodingBoy) 62 | - [@CodingMaster398](https://replit.com/@codingMASTER398) 63 | - [@LilyanaGipe](https://replit.com/@LilyanaGipe) 64 | - [@IcemasterEric](https://replit.com/@IcemasterEric) 65 | - [@GunesSunar](https://replit.com/@GunesSunar) 66 | - [@CoolCoderSJ](https://replit.com/@CoolCoderSJ) 67 | - [@CodingCactus](https://replit.com/@CodingCactus) 68 | - [@JDOG787](https://replit.com/@JDOG787) 69 | - [@MUHAMMEDATIF1](https://replit.com/@MUHAMMEDATIF1) 70 | - [@TheOceanFace](https://replit.com/@TheOceanFace) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/publishing.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: The New Publish Flow 3 | author: Søren Rood 4 | date: 2022-06-02 5 | cover: https://blog.repl.it/images/publishing/new.png 6 | categories: product 7 | --- 8 | 9 | **TL;DR - sharing stuff you make on Replit is now easier than ever.** 10 | 11 | Replit has the most powerful primitive of any social platform that has ever existed. On Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and many others, you only have the option of sharing text, images, and videos. 12 | 13 | On Replit, the core primitive is a computer. The _thing_ that's actually shared on the Replit social network is a runnable machine. 14 | 15 | We've had users build and share games, personal websites, trading bots, password crackers, operating systems, and even MacOS clones. 16 | 17 | In the past, the process of sharing your work on Replit has been buggy and confusing. The old publish flow didn't make much sense, especially to new users. It used to be unclear what "publishing" really even did. 18 | 19 | I'm excited to share that we've completely revamped the publish flow. Not only is the sharing experience more streamlined, but creators have more control over how people actually consume their work. 20 | 21 | ### New flow in action 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | ### Cover page options 26 | One new feature we added to the publish flow is the ability to customize the cover page. Creators can now choose between a photo and a file to display on their Repl's cover page. Here are examples of both options: 27 | 28 | Photo: 29 | Cover Photo Example 30 | 31 | File: 32 | Default File Example 33 | 34 | ### Sharing updates 35 | We also added the ability to share updates. If you publish something and decide to change it in any way, you now can "share an update" to tell your viewers what changed. Creators can share updates from the workspace and the Repl's cover page. This is what a cover page update looks like: 36 | 37 | Update Example 38 | 39 | ### Templates 40 | One more thing -- now _anyone_ (yes, anyone) can publish templates! In the last slide of the publish flow, you can tick a checkbox called "publish as template". 41 | 42 | When you do this, your Repl will be published to https://replit.com/templates where anyone can use it as a starting point for their next project. 43 | 44 | If you want to make money for creating templates on Replit, check out our [template jam](https://blog.replit.com/template-jam)! 45 | 46 | --- 47 | 48 | If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to [Søren](https://twitter.com/roodsoren) on Twitter. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/python-debugger.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: Introducing Step Debugging for Python 3 | author: Amjad Masad 4 | date: 2016-11-28T08:00:00.000Z 5 | categories: product 6 | --- 7 | 8 | ## Debug your Python3 programs from your browser 9 | 10 | At Repl.it, our goal is to make programming more accessible, and as part of this 11 | we aim to provide the full power of popular programming environments with no 12 | setup time. And I don't think it's an understatement to say that debugging is 13 | the majority of what we, as programmers, do. [](preview end) 14 | 15 | That's why today we're making it possible to step-debug through your Python 3 16 | code right from the browser. We've built a new debug pane that makes it easy 17 | step in, out, over, and resume your code. All the common operations a typical 18 | debugger would do. 19 | 20 | ![debugger](https://i.imgur.com/oerWaQR.gif) 21 | 22 | To get started: 23 | 24 | * write your code 25 | * click the "debug" button on the top right corner of the editor 26 | * a debug pane will pop-up underneath the console 27 | * this allows you step through your code 28 | 29 | Note that this is still in Beta and we have a lot we want to improve on it. The 30 | obvious thing that we'll be adding shortly is support for breakpoints. But 31 | that's not all, we want this to be on parity with the best debuggers in 32 | industry: 33 | 34 | 1. Add breakpoint support. 35 | 2. Add a scope pane to see what variables are in scope and what are their values. 36 | 3. Evaluate expressions in context. 37 | 4. Add watch expressions. 38 | 39 | Give it a spin on this recursive [factorial program](https://repl.it/E9oT). 40 | 41 | Let us know if you hit any bugs or if you have any feature requests. Happy debugging! 42 | 43 | p.s.

I learned how to program the turtle to draw a square 16 | and a triangle which I then put together to create a house. However, I was frustrated 17 | that I had to keep repeating the code to create a village made from 18 | multiple houses -- and that's how discovered loops! It's a natural way for 19 | children to learn programming. Here is an [example turtle graphic house](https://repl.it/DoYJ/1) in 20 | repl.it :) 21 | 22 | ![python turtle](https://i.imgur.com/1hG5cuf.gif) 23 | 24 | So far, we've been focused on what we think was largely missing from the web: 25 | running programs that typically require installing a compiler or an interpreter 26 | on your computer. However, now that we've 27 | built [tools](https://repl.it/classroom) for teachers to bring programming to 28 | their classroom, many want to use turtle graphics as part of their 29 | cirriculum. And that's why we're excited to introduce [Turtle Graphics](https://docs.python.org/2/library/turtle.html) 30 | support for Python. 31 | 32 | To get started just select [`Python (with Turtle)`](https://repl.it/languages/python_turtle) from the list of languages, 33 | import the `turtle` module and start drawing! 34 | 35 | _The Python Turtle implementation is powered by the [Skulpt open source project](http://skulpt.org)._ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/rails.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: Rails in 30 seconds 3 | author: Amjad Masad 4 | date: 1-30-2021 5 | cover: https://rubyonrails.org/images/rails-logo.svg 6 | categories: product 7 | --- 8 | 9 | Philosophically, Replit and Rails are incredibly aligned. We both exist to remove excessive configuration and complexity that stands in the way of building things. However, for a long time, it bothered me that Replit didn't work well with Rails because we focus on small and lightweight projects. Recently, our infrastructure has gotten much more powerful, and I decided to give Rails another spin. It turns out it's not only possible to do Rails on Replit; it's quite a delightful experience. It takes less than 30 seconds from starting a project to seeing the welcome screen: 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | There is no magic under the hood. You can view the [template here](https://repl.it/@templates/Rails). I merely followed the getting started guide on the rails site and had to do only a couple of modifications to make the development website show up in the iframe on Replit (detailed in the readme file). 14 | 15 | Give it a spin, and let me know what you think! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/repl-identity-via-cli.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: Making Repl Identity More Accessible 3 | author: Matt Iselin 4 | categories: eng 5 | cover: https://blog.replit.com/images/rust_cover.png 6 | profiles: mattiselin 7 | date: 2023-01-10T22:00:00Z 8 | --- 9 | 10 | In August last year, we announced [Repl Identity](https://blog.replit.com/repl-identity), a signed identity for every Repl that your code can use to authenticate other Repls when communicating with your APIs and services. 11 | 12 | For a quick refresher, you can try out the [demo](https://replit.com/@mattiselin/repl-identity#main.go) that decodes the identity token and outputs it to the shell. 13 | 14 | We have a [Go package](https://github.com/replit/go-replidentity) for this already ([docs here](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/replit/go-replidentity)), but there's a limited selection of bindings for other languages. To that end, we're rolling out a command-line tool in every Repl that allows you to use features like Repl Identity in any language that can run a subprocess. 15 | 16 | Here's a quick demo that you can try in our own Repls: 17 | ```shell 18 | $ TOKEN=$($REPLIT_CLI identity create -audience="the target repl id") 19 | $ $REPLIT_CLI identity verify -audience="the target repl id" -token="${TOKEN}" -json 20 | { 21 | "replid": "ff2d906a-0a47-482b-9067-1ac0a078c394", 22 | "user": "mattiselin", 23 | "slug": "replit-cli", 24 | "aud": "the target repl id" 25 | } 26 | ``` 27 | 28 | Check out this example [Python Repl](https://replit.com/@mattiselin/repl-identity-cli#main.py) that creates and verifies a Repl Identity token: 29 | 30 | 31 | 32 | You can wrap this command in your code to do token creation and verification without needing a direct language binding. 33 | 34 | Enjoy! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/repl-status.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: See Your Currently Running Repls 3 | author: Joe Thom, Lincoln Bergeson 4 | date: 2022-11-11T12:00:00Z 5 | cover: https://blog.replit.com/images/analytics/thumbnail.jpg 6 | categories: product,infra 7 | --- 8 | 9 | Have you ever wondered which of your repls are running at a given time? Do you know which ones are currently serving traffic, and which ones need to be woken up? Do you wish you had more visibility into when your repls have stopped in the past and when they've been restarted? 10 | 11 | If any of the above describe you, we have just launched a new feature made especially for you: the Repl Status Manager. 12 | 13 | ![](/public/images/status-overview.png) 14 | 15 | To use it, go to the Status tab on the My Repls page. 16 | 17 | When you get there, you'll see a list of all the repls you've ever run in your account, sorted by recent activity -- including the ones that are currently running! 18 | 19 | If you expand one of the Repl entries on that page, you'll see the status history for that Repl. 20 | 21 | ![](/public/images/status-history.png) 22 | 23 | Unless you've purchased an "Always On" power up, websites hosted on Replit fall asleep when they're not in use. From this secondary view, you're able to see exactly when your repl fell asleep and when it woke back up again. 24 | 25 | Additionally, you are able to stop repls and prevent them from being woken up by pingers by hitting the "Stop" button in the status view. 26 | 27 | Happy coding! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/repl_history.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: Repl History 3 | author: Amjad & Faris Masad 4 | date: 2017-12-11T08:00:00.000Z 5 | categories: product 6 | --- 7 | 8 | At Repl.it we focus on simplicity, speed, and, most importantly, 9 | reliability. If you're using Repl.it as your primary or secondary IDE we want 10 | you to be confident that the time you invest working on your code will never go 11 | to waste. 12 | 13 | Building on our [autosave feature](new_repls), the underlying infrastructure -- 14 | every repl has its own filesystem now -- we've built an automatic revision 15 | system that keeps every revision of code you've ever written stored. The trouble 16 | was, as many of you pointed out, there was no easy way to manage it. That's why 17 | today we're excited to introduce Repl History, a page where you can view files, 18 | drill down to view old revisions by day or by change, diff them against latest, 19 | and finally easily restore them. 20 | 21 | Here is a quick gif walkthrough: 22 | 23 | ![history](/public/images/blog/history.gif?123) 24 | 25 | You can access this from your repls dashboard or from individual repls by 26 | clicking on the saved/history button. 27 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/repls-search.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: A Better Way to Search Your Repls 3 | author: Tim Chen 4 | date: 2018-03-19T00:00:00.000Z 5 | categories: product 6 | --- 7 | 8 | Along with the ability to star repls and tag repls, we now take repl organization one step further with the ability to search through your repls. 9 | 10 | You can use the search function in your repls dashboard in a few ways: 11 | * by keyword 12 | * by title 13 | * by tag 14 | * by language 15 | 16 | Please refer to the [search docs](/site/docs/repls-search) for detailed instructions on how to use it. 17 | 18 | ![animation of searching repls](/public/images/blog/repl-search.gif) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/ruby_gems.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: Require Ruby Gems 3 | author: Amjad Masad 4 | date: 2018-03-08T08:00:00.000Z 5 | categories: product 6 | --- 7 | 8 | On the heels of our Node.js npm support [announcement](node_modules), we're pleased to announce that we now 9 | support Ruby [Gems](https://rubygems.org/) too. We're excited to have the Ruby 10 | community join the fun. 11 | 12 | The way it works is slightly different from our Node or Python 13 | implementations. In Node or Python you simple require/import the module you'd 14 | like to use, and we'll automagically install the package for you. In Ruby, 15 | unfortunately, we couldn't find a reliable way to map requires to Gems so we had 16 | to go with a neat feature of Bundler: 17 | [bundler/inline](https://gist.github.com/chrisroos/0ddf618ac711abe0f465) where 18 | you can define your gemspec in the code. This works well for Repl.it because 19 | we'd like to make it easy for people to use the repl without having to add files. 20 | 21 | Here is an example, this uses the gem `colorlize` to print an ascii drawing of the 22 | American flag: 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 | We're still working on improving this, look forward to the following the coming 27 | days: 28 | 29 | - Per repl caching: install once, there forever 30 | - Gemfile support 31 | 32 | [Feedback](/feedback) welcome! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /training/replit-blog/swift.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | title: A Swift REPL 3 | author: Amjad Masad 4 | date: 2016-06-14T07:00:00.000Z 5 | categories: product 6 | --- 7 | 8 | In this age of containers it's much easier to run arbitrary code 9 | in the cloud. The harder parts are scaling the service, making it reliable, and 10 | —as in this case— creating cool and useful experiences. When we looked at 11 | existing Swift REPL implementations on the web we found that none 12 | delivered a stateful and interactive environment. Just an editor with a run 13 | button.[](preview end) 14 | 15 | As for us, as much as possible, we try to create an environment similar to 16 | the original inspiration for our website: DrScheme (now [DrRacket](https://racket-lang.org)). 17 | 18 | ![racket](https://i.imgur.com/dQZ0Jxk.png) 19 | 20 | ![repl.it](https://i.imgur.com/xRLWGYy.png) 21 | 22 | _(I cheated a little bit to make them seem more similar by using repl.it's 23 | preferences (⋮) to make the environment stacked as opposed to the default which is side-by-side)_ 24 | 25 | You code in the editor, hit run, and the 26 | interpreter will run your code, and then drop you in the console to interact with 27 | the resulting environment. The next time you hit run your code will be evaluated in a fresh 28 | environment. 29 | 30 | Today we're excited to announce the beta release for our Swift REPL that we're 31 | hoping will work in the same way we outlined above. 32 | 33 | ![swift](https://i.imgur.com/JthbWsS.gif) 34 | 35 | Try it here: [repl.it/languages/swift](https://repl.it/languages/swift) 36 | 37 | Execute your code, and then you get to interact with it in the console. Call 38 | functions you defined, change variables, and do as you please. Next time you 39 | hit run you're loaded with a fresh environment. 40 | 41 | We hope you find this useful.

You can gain access [here](https://replit.com/teams-for-education).* 10 | 11 | This Fall we will be shipping a series of small and large improvements to the Teams for Education product. We are laser-focused on making Repl.it the best solution for learning how to code; especially during extended periods of distance learning. 12 | 13 | ## Easy Grading and Feeback Using Project Switcher 14 | ![Teams for Education Editor Pane](https://blog.repl.it/images/teams_edu/edu_pane.gif) 15 | 16 | Grade projects faster with our new Project Switcher! Instead of tediously clicking "View Submission" for every student, you may now view, leave feedback, and annotate student project submissions without leaving your workspace. 17 | 18 | You can also use the Project Switcher to seamlessly navigate between Projects. We hope this helps relieve some anxiety while rushing to submit grades before the end of the semester! 19 | 20 | 21 | ## Bulk Invite Students via CSV File 22 | 23 | ![CSV file upload](https://blog.repl.it/images/teams_edu/csv_invites.gif) 24 | Invite all of your students to your Team at once by uploading a single CSV file. No need for students to have a Repl.it account beforehand - just provide their email addresses. 25 | 26 | 27 | 28 | ## Student Project Perma-Links 29 | ![student project perma-links](https://blog.repl.it/images/teams_edu/stu_perma_links.gif) 30 | Assign projects quickly using permanent student links to Team Projects. Only students who are part of your Team will be able to use your project perma-link. This improvement will make it more efficient to share links within your existing LMS. 31 | 32 | 33 | 34 | ## Looking Ahead 35 | 36 | That's not all! We have several exciting things arriving before the end of 2020: 37 | 38 | - Code-free input/output test authoring and autograding 39 | - A better onboarding experience for teachers 40 | - Webinars and training on Teams for Education 41 | - Snazzy new Teams profiles 42 | 43 | 44 | ## Giving Feedback Goes a Long Way 45 | 46 | Teachers continue to express their enthusiasm for multiplayer Repls, annotations, and group projects. We will continue to build on these new platform features to provide a seamless collaborative experience for project based learning. 47 | 48 | Are you dreaming of Repl.it features to make you a superhero in your classroom? We want to hear about it! Contact [Derrick McMillen](mailto:derrick@repl.it) directly via email.

But, there is another, much bigger, way to do this. Let Community lead the way with a Tutorial Jam.... 11 | 12 | ## Why Tutorials? 13 | Replit has always been a place for creators, educators, and learners. Recently, learners of all levels have been requesting more educational content. 14 | ![Content feedback](https://blog.repl.it/images/100days_feedback1.png) 15 | ![Content feedback 2](https://blog.repl.it/images/100days_feedback2.png) 16 | 17 | Our recent [Curriculum Jam winners](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOGs2oEyP4I) are a pair of teenagers running their own start up, [Mission Encodable](https://missionencodeable.com/about), determined to bring better content and learning tools to their school. Users from all coding backgrounds are learning along with [Replit's 100 Days of Code](https://twitter.com/search?q=replit100daysofcode&src=typed_query). We have the [Curriculum Hub](https://replit.com/curriculum) for educators, but we want *more* for *more* users. Allowing everyone to add tutorials gives greater equity of access and ability to meet the needs of the versatile Replit Community. 18 | 19 | ## How Do I Create Tutorials? 20 | The [Tutorial Pane](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l650luzyQGs) made its debut with [100 Days of Code](https://replit.com/learn). The best part about this simple feature is it's available to everyone in a regular repl and is super easy to set up with just a few steps: 21 | 22 | ⏮ Inside any repl, create a fdolder called `.tutorial`. 23 | 24 | ⏮ Within this folder, create as many markdown files as you like. They will automatically sort alphabetically (so add numbers to sort the order). 25 | 26 | ⏮ The level one heading on each markdown file will be the title that appears in the table of contents and the progress indicator. 27 | 28 | ⏮ Add a file called `video.json` within the `.tutorial` folder. 29 | 30 | ⏮ Embed a video with `{ "embedUrl": "https://www.youtube.com/embed/uniquevideocode"}` The embed link needs to be a YouTube video. 31 | 32 | ⏮ Reload the repl. 33 | 34 | Need extra help? Follow along with this [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l650luzyQGs) and see the tool in action in [this documentation](https://building-templates.davidatreplit.repl.co/)! 35 | 36 | ## What Can I Create? 37 | *Everyone* is an educator. Yes, you heard that correctly! Anyone who has something to share that will help other Replers learn *is* an educator. What can you share? Show off your skills by particpating in our upcoming [Tutorial Jam](https://tutorial-jam.replit-community.repl.co/). Our [live kick-off party](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEPDZzArTQ0) is October 29. The winners of this Jam will be among the first to have their content showcased on Replit. 38 | 39 | ## Did you say Tutorial Jam? 40 | 41 | We did. Get all the details [here](https://tutorial-jam.replit-community.repl.co/.). 42 | 43 | ✅ This Jam is for anyone who wants to teach a new concept, skill or game development. As we said, those who can, teach! So, feel free to share it with your students! 44 | 45 | ✅ You need to use the new tutorial feature that debuted in 💯 Days of Code. 46 | 47 | ✅ Your completed tutorial needs to be published to the community with #TutorialJam2022 and [submitted here](https://tutorial-jam.replit-community.repl.co/) between October 29 and November 5. 48 | 49 | What will you teach us?
